Webshots Photo ~*~ The tiny little frog I saw Clinging onto the window screen Was looking with such total awe The tiny little frog I saw Holding on with his little claw Looking at me with screen between The tiny little frog I saw ~*~ ~*~ When someone sad is looking in When they feel they are so left out Wondering if they'll ever win When someone sad is looking in At faces with a too smug grin They want at them to scream and shout When someone sad is looking in When they feel they are so left out ~*~ ~*~ While clinging there upon the screen The little frog got very still Looking scared with the screen between While clinging there upon the screen I thought I heard a little scream So shrill he made me have a chill While clinging there upon the screen The little frog got very still ~*~ Capt. Ron's challenge...... /pip/Forum7/HTML/000587.html [This message has been edited by garysgirl (09-10-2003 09:11 PM).] |

Yeah, Karilea, I think about how the little animals must feel when they see us humans walking around. They probably feel like we're giants. Thanks, lady Hugs Ethel |

I'm with you on believing that all creatures deserve respect...they have finally proved scientifically that even fish feel pain. So, this poem is near to my heart, and beautifully written, Ethel...~S~ Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart ~~S~~ |

Sunny, I think that all of God's creatures have feelings. If people would look at their eyes, some may not be so cruel to animals. I'm glad that you liked my poem. Thanks. Hugs to you, Ethel |

(big hugggssssss) Oh Ethel, I believe every one of God's creations has feelings and has a heart and so I too feel it is just cruel to be mean to animals! (wipes tears) When I was in elementary school and they wanted me and the class to disect frogs, I refused to because I love frogs and they know how to feel just like we do and we should just leave them alone and let them live with their families in their habitats and free them from those laboratories with the mice! (sad sigh) That is also why I will never support any war, even if the President wants it, because everyone in the world is a son and daughter of the Holy Spirit or Spirits they believe in and thus we should treat each other as brothers and sisters, and I will not let any of my family get killed! (wipes tears) God Bless You, sweet friend, it is wonderful, loving, and sensitive people like you I admire most and loving people like you deserve extra special angel hugs, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

Ethel...this is priceless! The picture is adorable (yes..I called the frog 'adorable'..lol), and the poem is just too cute...gave me a smile. I'm such a lover of animals of all kinds that this one just struck me...I just love that little guy! Hugs to you, sweet lady, ~Vicky If you judge people, you have no time to love them. |

Had a critter-on-the-screen idea myself but I think it would have paled by comparison. Love the little frogs too. |
