Wiggly Worm
.
it crawls and creeps upon a twig,
for every inch, a loathsome squirm.
such hideous and disgusting thing,
this wiggly, spiny, hairy worm.
but when it spins its silken thread
to make itself a cool cocoon,
something magical starts in there,
unfolding slow, revealing soon.
now, wriggling out of its silken shell,
ah, dazzling beauty from on high,
the ugly catterpillar has turned
into a lovely butterfly !
