In 'The Little Things That Run the World: A Poetry Tribute to Organelles, ' readers are invited on a poetic journey into this secret world, exploring the intricate structures and functions of cell organelles through vivid imagery and lyrical verse.

Through my exploration of cell organelles, I hope to inspire readers to see the beauty and wonder of science all around us. Whether you're a seasoned scientist or simply a lover of poetry, 'The Little Things That Run the World' offers a unique and captivating perspective on the world of cells and organelles. Join me on this poetic journey into the microscopic world and discover the hidden beauty of our cellular universe."""
