Old Toby the toad was sitting all alone. When Billy the bullfrog started singing a song. Old Billy was singing here we are just us two. All alone with nothing to do. Toby looked at Billy and thought he saw a tear fall. When out of the pond he heard Freddy the fish call. You`re not all alone you`ve got me. Look there stands Davey the deer out by the tree. Look in the tree up in her nest. There sits Mrs Blurjay taking a rest. There`s Dolly the dog having a fit. She`s chasing Cassie the cat who knows she won`t get bit. There`s Callie the cow out in the barn. Where Jackie the jackass is spining another yarn. Out in the mudhole lays Harold the hog. He`s watching Spunky the spider crawling up the log. There`s Mary Sue such a cute little girl. Don`t you all know that you`re her whole world? She wheels herself out to you in her wheelchair. With a smile on her face because she knows you`ll be there. We all need friends no matter who or what they may be. Because this world without friends I would hate to see. Juanita |

Such fun! This poem is a real treat! Gee, I've read three poems so far...one about the lawn ranger, one about a toad and one about a child crawling up daddy's leg, making him smile.....WHERE AM I? This is WONDERFUL!! Don't cry, girl. Some of us take a little longer getting here but we do.... |
