Worm

Smallest finger of a worm sends a million legs a crawling. Thousands of legs on one side joined in concert to move. Forward, forward, ever forward. Over bumps, into cracks, around the gravel. Whoops! Its' a cat. Smallest finger of a worm, You've just become a side dish in your turn. Millions of legs in that tummy. Thousands of legs running round. Forward, forward, ever forward. Over the inside of a belly button. No wonder my cat is hanging upside down.
