A Mistake

A Mistake

A Poem by Davi Rodrigues
"

This was something I saw this morning

"
The mistaken ant is carrying it home
It has a stem which is quite long
Its familiar shape does not seem wrong
But this "leaf", it fell from a bird of song
The mistaken ant is carrying it home

Author's Note

Davi Rodrigues
I know the ant was probably not mistaken, but seeing it with a feather when all the others had leaves just led me to this.
But it doesn't matter, try to see the symbolism.
