The insect world amid the suns & dew
Awake & hum their tiny songs anew
& climb the totter grass & blossoms stem
As huge in size as mighty oaks to them
& rushy burnets on the pasture rise
As tall as castles to their little eyes
Each leafs a town & the smooth meadow grass
A mighty world whose bounds they never pass
