Toad’s Up Toad’s up silly me croaking, hopping by the sea Leap frog leap frog over grass while the hours duly pass Draggin’ fly on spider strings whippoorwill gaily sings Cattails waving in the breeze beaver slaving gnawing trees Polywogs swim to and fro in the murky stream they go Mallard drake in the wake rowboat brings his tail a shake Summer dreamin’ by the pond dipping bobber magic wand Nightly crawlers slither in old tin can will they win? Will they bring old fish to shore, giving luscious taste the more? Straw in mouth cornered play lazy, crazy summer day Wait with me stay a spell rest a bit I’ll never tell When eyes twinkle you will know tis safe to leave tis time to go © August 14, 2001 |
