Once I had a small green frog who thought he was a puppy dog, He scratched for fleas, and wet on trees, He'd sit and beg, bite a postman's leg, go fetch a stick, give me a lick. The other frogs were green with envy, Until my frog chased down a chevy, He'd been taken in by canine seduction, It was the road to my poor frog's destruction, (for now you see he was the road, as he the center-line now bestrode) My frog who thought he was a poodle, now was flatter than a Ramen noodle, No more hunting and chewing a bone, My frog's done gone and I'm alone, Farewell my friend, my dear frog Rover, and now alas, my tale is over. So much for ranidophobia. |

Tim, I am so sorry to hear of your pet doggyfrog's untimely, and highly undignified, demise. I feel somewhat guilty for breaking into hysterical gales of laughter at this tragic story. Forgive me, please. But then again, why should I feel so guilty---you made me do it with your witty, imaginative tale! P.S. I cannot find the word "ranidophobia" in my dictionary. Did you make it up as you did this story? haha ~ I love your style of writing---all of them! ~ Linda |
