A Poem of T

Trying to turn tulips toward twilight Two toads laughed Too bad, one said That’s crazy, the other agreed They then tried to turn the tulips into twinkling twigs Tell me if you are not magical, one toad said to the other To tell the truth, I was never asked, said the other Transmogrifying his companion instantly into a thunderstorm The thunderstorm roared with trepidation This was truly a kick! The magical toad said The moral of the story: Do not ask a toad if he is magical. Thus, you will not have to get transmogrified into something else
