This is a poetry on Ants whose behaviour and characteristics 
have been of immense inspiration to me...
hope you will enjoy it!
 
 
Ants marching along
Due for something
Ever on the lookout
Rhythmic in the march
 
 
Struggling gracefully
Graciously sharing along
Teaming in endeavors
Rhythmic in approach
 
 
Millions marching along
Modifying habitats
Tapping resources
Rhythmic in defense
 
 
Soldiering on with mandibles 
Scrutinizing with compound eyes
Antennae feeling along
Rhythmic on six legs
 
 
Caring for the Queen and Young
Graduating to digging 
Stepping on to nesting
Rhythmic in foraging and defense
 
 
Surviving winter in dormancy
Hyperactive in the tropics
Marching along majestically
Rhythmic in work

Beautifully stated. It is wonderful I think to analyze the smaller things in life in such a way :)
