The tired troops
Marched on and on.
With all the food,
Paid attention to none.

The sergeant directed
While the soldiers walked
Through the forest temperate.
Finally tired, they rested.

Suddenly, an eclipse!
The fearful army fled,
And the food they had collected
Was there left.

The ones who survived
Had tearfully watched
Their fallen comrades
Get crushed and stepped on
Like the ants they were.

The use of perspective has always been a favorite of mine, especially in unusual ways.
