H's Silkworm

[crazychicknlady]

H got a silkworm a little over a week ago. She took care of it and it has survived well enough to start spinning a cocoon. H is sad, since the life expectancy of the average silkworm after it emerges as a moth is one week. She is already morning it's passing. She wants to remember the silkworm forever and wrote a song for it.

Oh Silkie, my Silkie,
my wonderful silkworm.

You are so wonderful,
even if you are a girl
or a boy or a both.

I'll love you forever and ever, a thousand times that.
And every ever is two million and a thousand and one.

And I'll remember you, oh Silkie,
for as long as I will love you.

I'll love you even if you are a moth or a silkworm.
And you are one of my best friends.

I'll love you even when you're gone.
And even I'm gone, too.

Even if you cannot hear me, or understand me,
I will still love you.

You are so brilliant.
The smartest silkworm I've ever known.
