IN THE GARDEN
A bird came down the walk:
He did not know I saw;
He bit an angle-worm in halves
And ate the fellow, raw.
And then, he drank a dew
From a convenient grass,
And then hopped sidewise to the wall
To let a beetle pass. ...

You are too good! I think I need to start a special competition just for you
Nobody loves me
Everybody hates me
Think I'll eat a worm.
Nice & greasy
Goes down easy
Think I'll eat a worm.
Think I'll eat a caterpillar
Bite it's head right off.
Squeeze out all the gooey matter
And use the legs for broth.
And it taastes soo goood!

I'll get me coat....
