A worm
wriggles out
onto the footpath
you wave it away
with your wide-brimmed hat
“wrong way”
you say,”
wrong way”
but as you
bend down
it is as still
as a strand of spaghetti

Hi Michael, Thanks for your email. I’ve fixed up A Worm poem to say “you” instead of “your” in the third stanza. It should now read correctly on the webpage. Kind regards, Linda
Thank you, Linda. I appreciate it. Kind regards, Michael
