This is a story of a hunky frog,
that croaked so loud so much like a hog,
He landed in the lotus pond,
we wished everyday that he'll be gone.
The evenings are our TV time,
but tranquility was shaken by a crime,
To our horror, the croakings came along,
So Fredie was thrown to a nearby billabong.
An hour passed and we were at peace,
but Fredie came back and we were in a twist.
The croakings came daunting and haunting.
We laughed admist temper amounting.
For three days in a row, Fredie kept croaking.
Arghh...When will his mate answer the callings?
No matter how far the banishments were,
Fredie will come back with more fervor.
Fredie found his mate the day after,
and two sets of croaking worsened the matter,
They got their chance of a romantic night,
and gone the next day, what a delight!
Few days later, the pond were infested,
Tadpoles were everywhere, someone help us!
Into the drain, off they go!
But some did stay by laying low.
This crazy mommy caught a few,
so the kids may have a full view,
into the jar tadpoles went a swimming.
Alden and Edric really went a beaming.
Two legs, four legs and shortening tails,
The little froggies jumped out of the pail.
Back to the pond to where they belong,
Mommy and the kids bade them 'So long!'.
Funny how we never heard them,
It's crazy, but we do miss them,
Guess they decide to leave their nest.
At least for now we get our rest.
(Am apologizing for the pics are not so good here.)
Tadpoles in the pond.
The beady eyes make them look cute. Their shapes remind me of stingrays though.
Side view.
Two legs.
The one on the right looks like godzillalah. he,he
Four legs.
Shortening tail.
Looks like little gold specks on the body.
Ready for the big world out there.
