ciao!

As long as they stay outside, I have no issues with ants.

Like bees, they are organized and very efficient. They know there is strength in unity something we humans have yet to learn.

Ants decompose organic waste, turn the soil and are a source of food for many other creatures.

They are very strong and can carry 50 times their own weight.

It seems so obtuse to write as required for this form (dodoitsu) of Japanese poetry. It makes it challenging (the per line syllable count) when use to reading English poetry. Good luck. It seems you have met the requirements.

Hi Santha,
This is a well written poem for the club. It uses the personification of ants.
It also seems a metaphor for soldiers at war.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
