Me And An Ant

If this scout ant thought it could discover everything about me,

if this next one thought a closer look would help better,

and if this one tried from an upper end, my hairs thus represented the whole complicated me.

I shall be totally wrong thinking that I know a lot about the green and cement jungle. I should be very wrong.

And not much better than an ant, although I am not Ann.

These are wonderful macros of the ants. That one was looking you right in the eye. I wonder what he was thinking?

Ah!!!!! I don't like the upi ants. Once, we were going for a walk, and my daughter stepped on a nest. They attacked her whole body, and I was very guilty.

I am happy being ANN with N, and not ANT with a T, though I was teaching my students about antenna, I have a colleague called Tina, so I got these 5 year olds to remember Ann and Tina. They enjoy this.

Did you know, in Johor, people search for Ant nests and sell them to Singapore? May be you can make a good income selling your ant nests.

You are a giant to all the ants and they are all keeping their eyes on you.
