The Frog In Me
Author: Unknown
As I sit upon a Lilly pad staring out across this pond of mossy green,
I ponder over thoughts inside my head of just what life really means,
thoughts of just where in life I might end up in just a year or two,
shall a beautiful young maiden one day kiss my lips or serve me in her stew, I try to always see the positive sides of life and dream of brighter days, though I too at time am haunted with dreams of being eaten or served in many different ways.
So if by chance fair maiden your heart is absent the comfort that only another heart may fill, remember I'm here alone upon my Lilly pad patiently waiting on you still,I shall wait a life-time on a heart filled with warmth, compassion and bliss, a love this strong may only come once in my life-time though I'll know it in her first kiss.
For all you pigs and dogs out there my advise to you is simply this, treasure each and every moment that you never have to spend alone, or find comfort in each and every memory you'll forever miss.
Signed The Frog

Lovely poem
Interesting alternatives for that frog: one day kiss my lips or serve me in her stew. With those two alternatives facing him no wonder he was frozen in place on that Lilly pad, alone. Thank you for sharing.
