Keep the Monster Away

As the saying goes,an apple a day will keep the doctor away But what is a worm to do I lie in a apple close to the core Ever so often i slither up to my brown bedroom door I stick my head out to peek at the world To my surprise,there's a monster out there Picking apples real fast I held my breath,i could only gasp My heart was thumping The apples were bumping in a basket down below A monster reached out and grabbed my home Opened his mouth,of long white teeth Said ,''im hungry'', i need something to eat My heart stood still,i couldn't breath Thought this would be the end of me.
