Hope Blighted

.
An old lady lived up a mountain
Fast flowing streams her water fountain
Until a frog one day 
Said kiss me quick I pray
Turn into your prince on wedding day


Day arose all dressed in brilliant white
Lifted veil smiling ..oh what a fright
He gave a scream and ran
Rather stay frog not man
She looked like a potato with blight'*

*potato blight makes them go wrinkled
