"OH POLLYWOG MY POLLYWOG!"
"OH POLLYWOG MY POLLYWOG!"
he was a prince
good as any to be got
in a fairy story book
you couldn't have
written a better man
eyes like emeralds
she was a princess
although to be fair...a frog
beautiful as any green ever seen
it was their greenness
which drew them together
as well as their Irish-ness
"He is just so...ribbit ribbit!"
he blushed
to hear her say so
"****..!" she croaked
"It's just difficult to find
the right human words!"
she told him if
married they were to be
all would be change and change about
she wore his ring
in her bottom lip
he her heart's "...ribbit!"
she tried to brush up
on the lingo
Human for Frogs
come the wedding day
all was not
as it was before
he had been transformed
into the handsomest
bullfrog
and so they live
happy as a story
that needs no book
too busy loving
to be worried
about its telling
why the change
in the how it goes
from the what went before
that's easy to tell
I live under the spell
of a lively little girl
with eyes so so green
and who as it happens
just adores...frogs
