HAPPY FROGGY
By Sarah Shegog

I’m a frog I’m a frog I’m a jumpy breed
I love to swim in the lovely weeds
My mum my mum tells me not to go
Where the river is deep and the weeds do grow
So I ask and I ask until she said yes
But when I go I find a nasty toad
My mum thinks he has dimples but we know it is pimples
The frog fights and fights until the toad finally gives up and leaves
So the little Froggy
Gets to go for a swim in the boggy water
But it seams to be too foggy.
