Verse of the Day

"Departmental" by Robert Frost An ant on the tablecloth

Ran into a dormant moth

Of many times his size.

He showed not the least surprise.

His busines wasn't with such.

He gave it scarcely a touch,

And was off on his duty run.

Yet if he encountered one

Of the hive's enquiry squad

Whose work is to find out God

And the nature of time and space,

He would put him on the case.
