DISCOVERY, by                    
First Line: A caterpillar squirmed
Last Line: And slowly slithered down.
Subject(s): Caterpillars; Insects; Bugs


A caterpillar squirmed
Up to a lettuce leaf
And panted at the top
In woolly-worm relief.

On pancake world of green
And dizzy depths of brown
It gaped: "Now I've seen everything!"
And slowly slithered down.
