Leap Frog

Afraid,
the frog always jumps forward
because that's where its safety is.

Afraid,
people always jump backwards
because that's where their safety was.

Grover - If I may add another verse?

Afraid
Scalawags always jump sideways,
Because they aren't safe anywhere.

Ya hear that Toerag and Balladeer?

Wow. That's really interesting. Something to think about. I think, perhaps, I'd like to jump forward.

Thought-provoking write.

Grover ... wonderful wisdom and it made me smile!

Nice job ... hugs, Marti

I take no credit for my poems. Although I write them, I feel
more like I transcribe them. It's just a matter of listening.
