      Don't Poke a Worm till it Wriggles - Celia Warren

      Book Worms

      If this book wriggles

      and squiggles and squirms,

      that is because it’s a

      book full of worms.

      Curl up like a worm

      and enjoy all the rhymes,

      a hundred, a thousand,

      a million times.

      Don’t Poke a Worm

      Don’t poke a worm till it wriggles.

      Just joke with a worm till it jiggles

      and breaks into chuckles,

      goes bendy and buckles

      and giggles and giggles and giggles.

      Hey Wiggle Wiggle

      Hey wiggle wiggle

      The worm had a wriggle,

      He squirmed right over the mole.

      The little mole gaped

      To see he’d escaped

      And the worm wriggled into his hole.

      Sing a Song of Squiggling

      Sing a song of squiggling,

      A garden full of worms,

      Four and twenty sneezes

      Cover them in germs.

      When I dig the flower-bed

      The worms begin to squirm,

      Why am I allergic to

      The humble garden worm?

      What is a Worm?

      A string with a wiggle

      A
