Fiddler and Frog

the Fiddler played and sang a tune
all the while the sun became moon
	Sir Frog was dancing
	and sometimes prancing
but then the music died too soon

“Fiddler,” cried Frog, “why do you stop?
I’m still in mindful mood to hop!”
	Fiddler said, “Sir Frog,
	bring me honey grog
and I’ll play the night till you drop!”

I will get a limerick right one of these days. I love it that this has a fun little story with it. Good job.

The musician has a gusto for drinking. Let them play and dance more.
