One day a green, fat and cute catterpillar was climbing the gooseberry tree near was house. i just came back from school and was fascinated by that caterpillar. I stook under the tree watching it. After a while two crows came from nowhere and attacked the poor chap. One crow started puling the front part and the second crow was pulling the back part of the catterpillar.
When I saw this, I immidietly threw a stone at the crows. But the crows started attacking me. Then I ran into the house. From the window of my house I could see that the catterpller was torn into pieces. I felt so bad for the poor little caterpillar that day
THE END.

Dear Sammy,
ReplyDeleteI liked what you wrote very much. I was also sad for the caterpillar.
It must have pained you so much to see the caterpillar being eaten away by the crow. If it hadn't been eaten, it would have become a beautiful butterfly. But the important thing is that you tried to rescue it. The other thing to remember is that the caterpillar is a link in the natural cycle. Crows need food to grow, and they feed on small worms and caterpillars. You must have wondered why there are crows in this world. These crows are also called the scavengers of this earth. They eat worms, left over food, and clean the earth. In spite of this we feel sad for the caterpillar which got eaten. Because there are such dangers during the life cycle of a butterfly, they lay hundreds of eggs. Next time you go to the park ask Ajji to look for eggs laid by the butterfly. They are normally underneath the green leaves of plants.
