William the Worm

A beautiful worm that will forever be missed. Was found in a Tesco cucumber, and was squished in the shrink-wrap. Caused many heartbreaks, within his family and throughout the media. His death was truly something to mourn over. His funeral was held in the backyard of his family. William is gone, but will remain forever in our hearts.
William the Worm, Faithful and brave,

Though his life was short-term,

And will never be the same,

William the Worm,

The sky grew bright that day,

Though sadly, his soul flew away,

And now I sit here, with tears in my eyes,

And as I let out small cries,

I will know now that William the Worm,

Was the greatest worm alive
