Analysis of Life is full circle



Soil popped into life,
Out of it crawled a worm.
It peeped all around,
Winds belled a chime.

While enjoying life thus,
A fly spotted him out.
It was a sumptuous meal,
The fly fluttered around.

The flight soon ended,
A frog leaped on it.
The tale was over soon,
The amphibian took a rest.

Rains arrived pell-mell,
The frog rose to his hilarious mood.
It began to croak and say ribbit,
Troubles were invited unaware.

A snake slithered around,
It enjoyed an unexpected feast!
It moved into a hole for rest,
An eagle finally pulled him out.

It was a premium meal,
Ants and worms finished the rest.
From worm to worm,
Life is full circle.
