Poem for an insect

Insects usually leave me completely indifferent. Well, I find funny ants and caterpillars, and terrifying spiders. But now my vision of these little animals and of the world (I’m not exaggerating) will never be the same. The merit of this transformation lies a film by Marie Perennou and Claude Nuridsany, "Microcosmos”. Released in 1996, it deals with the life of the inhabitants of a tiny meadow. At these dimensions, the world gains gigantic proportions and the small details we never pay attention to, reveal all their charm. Surely in the world in which we live there is no lack of imagination. Enjoy!
