The Worm that Wouldn't Wiggle

The Worm that Wouldn't Wiggle

Although I am a worm, I never used to wiggle,

cos when my tummy rubbed the floor, it always made me giggle.

I couldn't make it half a yard before I had to stop,

cos I was laughing very hard, exhausted I would flop.

I'd lay down on the comfy grass, beneath a shady flower,

and recover from my giggle fit, it took me half an hour.

My mum was quite unhappy, my friends they used to mock,

until I had a jumper made, well okay more a sock.

Now when I wear my wiggle-sock and slide about the floor,

I do not get a tickle, on my tummy anymore.

I can wiggle to the shops and back, my friends no longer scoff,

and when I want to giggle, I just take my jumper off!
