Frog Adventures

Frog Adventures - journey always continues - A Collaboration The Frog lands on earth smiling Nothing has changed In mirror reflections Bearing gifts from his mission on Mars He met the cow who jumping over the moon On the milky way he lay back rocking thoughts Upon the moons' smile on a beautiful memory Laughing having fun In warm joy When lightning struck Striking a beautiful tune sings out Watching the dish elope with the spoon Crying It looks like the cat Is playing the fiddle Sadly tugging heart strings the temperature drops Every which way swaying lost One craft on this ocean a ghost ship Into a shadow horizon I sail to you In light of the moon Are you sure? That Is not quite the story of the Frog that seamen tell. He lost all his gifts when he fell Into the sea. This Is the way seamen tell It. Captain Jamie Lee Is at the wheel the ghost ship was the Dramallach Raven A fine upstanding bunch of pirate lads not one of them was a craven Now out of the corner of his eye Jamie Lee did spy Something strange and he almost gave a startled cry A Frog fell Into the sea small and green Frog overboard He did lustily cry his eyes sharp and keen The mate threw over the line and then to crews surprise A little green frog holding a brollie stood before their eyes This little Frog lifted up and placed on the poop deck A poor little fellow he was and he looked quite a wreck It was then Mr. Frog noticed Jamie Lee was a ghost And he turned white and lean Instead of being green As he sat shaking looking up at his host "Now Mr. Frog what will I do with you oh deary me Bash you on the head then off with your legs and have you for my tea" Don't panic, didn't happen, just a bit of ghostly pirate humour there. There were no Frogs harmed In the making of this poem. Now, where was I? oh yes....... "Now Mr. Frog what will I do with you oh deary me I think we'll take you back to Ireland across the briny sea" A Collaboration by Liam Mcdaid & Michael Clarke.
