• Panic

  "Run!" cried the ant
  "From that thing up above!
  The sun has been blocked
  Oh run, quickly run!"
  "Where to?" cried another
  "I can't see a thing
  Surrounded by darkness
  A haze before me"
  "It's water! Oh no!
  Run, quickly flee!"
  "We're drowning!
  Surrounded by water so vile
  And that great shadow is still around me!"
  "It's picking me up! 
  Put me down!
  I am dead!
  But wait...
  It has set me
  Here on the land. 
  Strange this does seem
  What could it be
  That would reach down and save me
  In my anxiety?"

   

  "Run!" I cry
  "I can't see ahead!
  There's a darkness, a haze
  The light's been cut off.
  What is around me?
  I'm drowning, I'm lost!
  Oh Father, my God,
  Aren't you at all hereabout?
  Have you abandoned me, like all the others?
  What is this now
  Reaching down to take me?
  Oh dear this is torture,
  The end I am sure.

  But wait...
  What is this?
  I've been set on my feet?
  On dry land and safe ground.
  Why Father, 'twas you
  That was there all along!"
