Poetry: The Irony of the Small!

Small things may seem innocent
but in fact most of them
are pain in the neck;
Little flies, mosquitoes and bugs
push their way every where,
are hard to tame;
they spare no one;
Bigger augurs bigger trouble;
lions, tigers, wolves and elephants
may be tamed
and kept under custody;
yet they are no match for the small!
Rodents, Pirhanas and microbes may be small,
very small,minute, microscopic,
but miraculously they may do things big;
atoms, electrons, neutrons and the protons
the nano-particles, Oh, you can just see them in
dreams!
How much strength they have is no secret,
yet their smallness is terrifically good or bad;
and as large as the universe itself.
or the beginning and end of unforeseen Big Bangs!
we fondly look at the little stars
knowing little that if it came closer
it would grow into a big fire ball,
a fiery blitz of cosmic death
gagging life once for all !
