Ladybug – July 2019

(ff) #1
In my willow cave I lie
And watch the animal world go by.

A worm comes wriggling from the soil.
It stops and forms a small pink coil.

A big black ant crawls through the grass.
I move my arm to let it pass.

A squirrel dashes by and stops,
Then scampers off in three long hops.

A bird struts by, all shiny black,
Its feathers gleaming on its back.

A small brown butterf ly f lits by,
And dances on across the sky.

A tiny caterpillar’s swinging
On a thread to which it’s clinging.

Lots of things for me to see
Hidden beneath the willow tree.
