A Caterpillar Raised By Worms
What is a caterpillar to the worms?
Surrounded by many who judge.
Yet seeks to impress the worm that affirms.
What is a caterpillar to the worms?
Do the worms know he will grow, from what he learns.
Or will the neglected butterfly grow a grudge?
What is a caterpillar to the worms?
Surrounded by many who judge
