Grasshopper

Ah, my friend,
You are grasshopper to my ant.
I do not deny
I find you enticing
As you sparkle your way through life.
When I have my grasshopper moments
We meet
And I sparkle with you briefly:
Together we sparkle much more brightly
Than each alone.
But there is too much ant in me
For us to be together long.
Ah, my friend,
I am so glad
You have been there with me
In those moments.
Ant though I am,
I treasure knowing
The world finds room
For grasshoppers.
