The Worm's Saga Poem by MELVIN BANGGOLLAY

THE WORMS SAGA
MELVIN D. BANGGOLLAY

One day is a kingdom by the sea
Where flowers bloomed so lovely,
Golden sun shone so patiently
As the sea kissed the shore gently

There was a lovely butterfly
Flying so high up in the sky,
Wore a smile full of melody
When she learned to fly merrily.

She flapped her wings eagerly
That she’s went so far away
Watching the flower’s beauty
When she saw a worm so ugly.

The worm was lurking happily
Upon that flower’s verdant beauty
While being enchanted magically
By the scents of its magical fury

The butterfly screamed angrily
“You ugly worm you’re naughty”
Don’t touch that flower, I say”
For that’s only fitted for a queen
Lovely as my golden wings.

The worm was so shy and lonely
For he pitted himself for being ugly
But still he said politely and humbly
“I am so sorry and pardon me
Dear lovely butterfly full of beauty
But I hope that in your memory
You’ve not forget, you’re like me
Before you got that wings of fury.
