Second Ode To Worms Poem by M.L. Squier

O! Wonderful Worm!

Holy Denizen

Of the Tunneled Ground!

Consume and Clean

This Clashing Earth!

Twist and Turn through

Earth’s Ancient Mound!

O! Wonderful Worm!

Good morning to your

Soft and Writhing Girth!

Praise for your Short

Yet Ceaseless Birth!

Why isn't there a National Worm Day or Month?

Why isn't your Name and Shape on a coffee cup?

You Warm and Till the Sacred Soil!

The Worm we must

Idolize

Because it doth

Fertilize!

True Warrior and Savior of the Earth!

O! Wonderful Worm!
