All alone sat Molly Frog,
Forlorn on her lily pad.
She couldn't think of a worse day
That she had ever had.

She hadn't eaten breakfast,
Because she hadn't caught one fly.
Her husband Freddy left her
Without even a goodbye.

Her children disobeyed her.
Her friends had moved away.
Her life was plain unhappy.
What more was there to say?

But Molly was a frog,and so
She had other things to do
Than sit and moan her misery,
For if anything was true

It's that a frog cannot afford
To waste her breath on sighs.
If she plans to live another day,
She'd better catch some flies.

Wow, what a lesson here! Very very enjoyable!
Could be used in schools!
