Coiled, in stiff repose The green frog flexes, it's nimble toes. Locked, it's muscles test The green frog's will, proves the best. Straining, to hear the flap The grey hawk stalking, the green frog's trapped Cringing, it hears the dive Hawk-eyes lock, on a bright green prize It leaps! It's spring proves better than The plummeting hawk, an experienced veteran Adjusts it's flight, as the frog leaps right! Then soft green flesh, bleeds from a **** made fresh And talons stained red, left the frog dead.
