Frogs

A Poem By: Mike Austin

February 3, 1997

Frogs are green freckled and exotic
While toads are brown lumpy and
Neurotic
and tree frogs are smooth
Gentle and melodic
Yet HOW could these frogs with such different
Descriptions
Get along without any conniptions?

Here is a clue if you can't figure it out
Toads live in slimy ditches
Frogs live in grass above the ridges
And tree frogs live-
Well, you know....
