Loyalty, Thou art a Frog

A loyal being is my pet frog More reliable than any dog For a car a dog will chase Maybe even win the race While my trusty frog stays in his bog

Very low maintenance. Flip the lily pad once every other month, even if not necessary. ~ Ho Tel Staff

Can you please reassure me that he stays put out of loyalty… and not because you’ve eaten his legs? What a fun write GW. Thoroughly enjoyed. Terry

I love the pun on "bog" - only the British will get that (I think). :) But you being from the good old US of A, I will take it literally ... still good.

"bog" means "toilet" in Yorkshire ...;) That is why I giggled ... Limericks thrive on idiom, puns and innuendo :)

You are right, Suzette. I have no clue how 'bog' acts as a pun in Britain. Oh, well...
