Freddy Frog
Freddy Frog went hopping on
a frosty chilly night.
But when he hopped into the pond
he slipped on top the ice.
He stomped and jumped into the cold
to try and take a swim,
But getting down below the ice
was very hard for him.
Freddy tried throughout the night.
He never slept wink.
He night was almost morning now.
The sky glowed orange and pink.
He had to try a new way down
since hopping wouldn’t do.
So with his kindest froggy croak
he said, “Hello to you!”
Oh please, dear Ice, I’d like to splash
and play there down below.
Open a hole just large enough
for a small frog to go.
Just then the sun began to rise
and smiled on Frog and Ice.
The ice smiled back and cracked a bit
just trying to be nice.
Sun and Ice and Freddy
had a happy, fun-filled day.
But as the sun began to set
the water went away.
The ice, it seems, went back to sleep
and closed the crack for night.
Freddy Frog will wait ‘til morn
for another splash delight.
