This is a unique and well-written poem on the concept of "the life one strives for is too often not as good as the one that is left behind". Excellent Work! Best Wishes, Todd

Comment from Chanphy
I like the message in the poem. There is no place like home. It makes the point that wherever we roam,looking for a better life, more excitement,we will see that "the grass is not greener." I glad he made it back home and was thankful for his "brown and ugly tree." Home.

This was written with a lot of wit, and it is entertaining to read. I like how it reminds us of the lesson that there is no place like home, even for an inchworm. I enjoyed this delightful read, and I'll stay away from Missouri, lol. :)

This is a great story with a strong moral. Sometimes I feel like that inchworm. The artwork caught my eyes as well. Delightful work in all accounts.

I can always "see" you performing/ reading this piece to a group of rapt little faces Eric! Your clear story-line makes it very appealing, with a logic to it that is effortless - easy for kids to follow. Well done! :)Sharyn

It was fun accompanying Mike on his trip to see the world wide. He sees and learns a lot, but he is most happy when one day he meets his friend Willie, and together they head for home again and Mike admits
I was so alone,
I'm glad to be home,
In this brown and ugly tree.
