Coaxing a Frog To Grant a Wish
The child was wiser than Mother Goose they say
She understood kissing frogs was not the only way
She gave him a pat and a tiny hug, a compliment too
And he granted her a wish as only a frog can do.
The key was to listen to the voices in her brilliant head.
Be sure to woo him, and sweet talk him, they all said.
Give him some compliments, and he will grant you a wish.
He did just that before he left with a squeamish swish.
