I squirm, I crawl
I can’t do anything but that
All I see is what’s a foot ahead
I walk, I eat
I feast on plants
And nothing but that
When you hear crunching outside
It’s me

Most of my life I’m miserable
Not being able to do much
Held back, not doing things I dream of
I only see dirt and grass

Weeks pass
In my tiny space
Surrounded by warmth
When the sun beats on me
Wondering what I will see
When I’m bigger and better

Out I come
Into the world once more
But only this time,
Bigger and better ready to see more
