The Princess and the Frog



when the ocean in
the sky
pours down
upon us

like it has
the last week

suddenly these
little critters
mistake our front
yard for a lake

leave it 2
my girl
2 catch
care for
and even...
kiss a toad

i most lovingly
informed her she
will kiss many
of these until
she finds her
one true love

and her daddy
bribed her with
a whole pond
of toads if
that's all she
kisses until then

who knows
with her
it just may
work!

If a Prince is what you're
looking for,
Or a princess fair and sweet,
then be the best that
you can be,
And your sweetheart
you shall meet!

Only Tylie would actually put her mouth on the frog. Mariah would have loved to have gotten in on that fun.
