Tantalizing Taste of a Frog

I swam the deepest ocean sea.
But there was no frog waiting for me.
So I searched high and low.
But there was no lily pad for me to go.
I cannot believe I braved the waters for this.
And returned home without a kiss.
The little frog that done me wrong.
Well, that's another story not for this song.
Here's a short story link.
Change 4000 pounds to 4001.
To help the other frogs think.
OK my work here now is done.

About this poem:

<------ Have you seen this frog??

Can't blame a girl for advertising.

Maybe shouldn't with this poem.

Oh well what is it they say no guts no glory

Hi, Happygolucky4u,
And returned home without a kiss.. Oh, no! 4000 lbs being served up translates into even fewer frog-Princes on whom to try that kiss!

Thanks for the link Happy, it certainly provided a greater insight into your poem... though I am feeling a tad queasy at the thought of the mass slaughter of heaven knows how many frogs to provide 4000 lbs of frogs legs.

A fun write... I hope you soon find your Prince...

Oh, yeah, somebody has lied us women telling that old fairy tale about princess and the frog. I bet some bad man wrote it and put forward through the centuries just to have fun with all the beautiful princesses. A prince is a prince, can't be a frog before that!
