Green Is Beautiful

A motley brown toad lived in a stream Oh to be green was his nightly dream Once he slid into a stagnant lake To say he stunk was not a mistake So he rolled in the grass to get clean So happy when he saw he was green He ran to his friends wanting to show Don't get wet they said, or it will go. If you see a green toad face all smiles You will know it's him smell him for miles Contest ..Green Humour. Sponsored by Carolyn Devonshire Syllables checked using soup syllable checker. 9 per line.
