The Caterpillar (Lepidoptera)
----- First Instar
Born on leaf one springtime morning
Run about, my life is dawning
Urgent sense of stomach churning
Off to fill a mighty yearning
Because I'm hungry!
My life has just begun
I am so hungry!
No time for play or fun
I feel the need on leaves to feed
That lie under the sun
TIME TO MOLT!
----- Second Instar
More conspicuous, larger sized
Birds and wasps and lizard's eyes
To fool therefore camouflage
Look but find only mirage
And I'm still hungry!
Danger goes on and on
I am so hungry!
Watch out! or be undone
I feel the need on leaves to feed
That lie under the sun
MOLT AGAIN!
---- Third Instar
There's a new song that I'm humming
For I feel a change is coming
I keep looking to the sky
Pretty soon I'm going to fly!
But I'm still hungry!
No stem or bud I shun
I am so hungry!
Silk wrap that must be spun
I feel the need on ALL to feed
That lie under the sun
COCOON!
Born on leaf one springtime morning
