Salamanders

You give me salamanders
The crawly-wally kind,
moving around on my insides.
Their different colors, with licky tongues,
sticky toes, and twirly tails.

You give me salamanders,
Where others get butterflies with pretty fragile wings,
I get one of the slimest, creepy crawl things.
My favorite.

You give me salamanders...
But I want to give you some too.
That feeling when you have them,
like the whole world is new.
