TRANSFORMATION





The little boy was excited,
He’d found an earthworm lookalike,                                    
He got it home and hid it in a jar,
‘Glopey’ he thought was a nice name.
                                                                                                         Glopey did not like it here,
It was missing the beautiful green park,
Alas! It could not do anything now.

It soon started liking the little boy,
Both of them would play together,
The boy’s friends envied him,
Glopey was indeed a different pet.

One evening the boy started crying ,
The jar was empty,                                                                           
Glopey was missing,
In its place was a beautiful butterfly,
trying hard to come out.
Just then his mother came,
And removed the lid
Out came the butterfly ,
And flew away into the open.

The boy got angry ,
He wanted his Glopey back,
His mother calmed him down,
And explained all
‘What you got home was a caterpillar,
Its now emerged into a beautiful butterfly,
We must not keep it closed anymore,
Freedom is what it desires.

The boy listened carefully,

He  was very  happy ,
His green Glopey,
Had  turned so 
colorful now.
He turned and wave to the butterfly,
which was sitting on the boy’s favourite flowers.
