Tiny Black Speck

I watched
With awed eyes
At the journey unfolding
As one slender ant
This tiny black speck
Traversed the depths
Of the vast unknown
Following the trail
Of a tiny, black speck

Mountains and peaks
To these two determined
The flesh of a chemist
To the eyes I called my own
Who was I to say
If it was just another hurdle
Or a journey to see the queen
In the castle missed by men

Deceiving the perceiver
Relieving the receiver
May we all start breathing
Just a little bit easier
Embracing the view
That indeed we are neither
A tiny, black speck
Nor some spiritual redeemer
But a creature of love
One faithful believer
