Poem
You’ve heard of Cinderella, I am sure
and how a fairy Godmother came to her
to help her meet her prince one magic night
when nothing in her life was going right.

Did you know that some animals too
can have their mighty wishes come true?
Once upon a time, there lived a frog
who had a friendship with a lovely dog.

The frog could only speak as froggies do,
Ribbit - ribbit, that was all he knew.
The tiny poodle dog he saw each day
was outside where she always liked to play.

She watched him hop and hop along the ground
and noticed how he followed her around.
He’d croak at her, but she had not a clue
that the frog was saying “I love you.”

So lovesick was the frog, at night he’d cry
thinking it would better be if he could die.
He wished to be a little dog and spend all of
his time with the poodle with whom he was in love.

One night before the froggy’s eyes there would appear
a frog with wings! He had a wand, and then grew near.
“I am your fairy frog-father,” this strange frog said.
“I’ve come to grant your wish, so have no dread.

I know that a poodle you would like to be.
If you are very sure of it, then you shall see
by morning’s light, your wish will have come true!”
The froggy slept. As he slept, a dog tail grew.

His nose became a snout, and he grew fur.
He’d turned into a poodle for the dog he loved – just for her!
His poodle love came out to play. Before her eyes,
she saw another poodle – such a surprise.

She found him most attractive, but could not tell
how it seemed this new dog she already knew well!
Her master mother saw her and the dog she took up with.
It made her glad her fur-baby seemed so filled with blithe.

She put up posters for a poodle maybe that was lost.
Nobody claimed the frog turned dog, so at no cost,
the master mother took this new sweet poodle in.
If dogs could smile, you can bet the once-frog dog would wear a grin.

Months passed (and no, the tale’s not finished yet).
Some precious puppies next were born from master mother’s pet.
No one ever figured out though why one puppy dog
ended up with googly eyes and hind legs of a frog!
