A Caterpillar
A Caterpillar wanted a bridegroom,
For that he started to groom.
At once decided not to shelve,
He suspected she might not be an elf.
Because he feared his dear friend,
Perhaps would prove foe at the end.
She was a little singing bird,
He hid himself when she sang, he heard.
He cocooned his body, with his own net;
He might not be saved after a bit late.
He thought he shouldn't take a second try,
Because, it's not the time to be butterfly.
