Little Green Frog

The water warms,

Little green frog

jumps right in

the water’s nice

it's always been.

little green frog

in warm water

his senses whet

he warms himself

warmer still yet.

little green frog

a bit toasty

but not a sweat

the water grows

warmer still yet,

little green frog

the water now

warm as a jet

the water grows

warmer still yet.

little green frog

the water bubbles

pose no threat

splish, and splash

warmer still yet.

little brown frog

thought it cold

met his fate.

Learn from him.

Get out. Don't wait.
