Willie Worm

Wriggly, wriggly, Willie Worm,
you’re so cute when you squirm!
You move your body to and fro
and that propels you to up and go!

Squiggly, squiggly, Willie Worm,
you soften the earth when you turn
and channel rain for plants and fruits
to trickle down and water roots.

Wiggly, wiggly, Willie Worm,
do not wander away from home.
You must not let your skin get dry
for you might shrivel up and die!

Giggly, giggly you earn a grin
whenever I feel your wrinkly skin.
I dare to hold you but it’s best
if I don’t, you won’t be stressed.
