Caterpillar
Brown and furry
Caterpillar in a hurry,
Take your walk
To the shady leaf, or stalk,
Or what not,
Which may be the chosen spot.
No toad spy you,
Hovering bird of prey pass by you;
Spin and die,
To live again a butterfly.
~Christina Rossetti
jpr: Hill folk predict the coming winter from the bands of this caterpillar: Dark for periods of harsh winter, light for mild.
