Notes About The Poem

Frog

It Really Isn’t Esoteric

Give me a syllable count,
I don’t do meter (or math, forsooth),
don’t ask for a rhyme
it might be a little off ~ 
as am I, just a bit crazy
(or so I’m told). 

Oh, me ~oh, my,
I’ll kiss the girls to make them cry,
jiggety-jig, jiggety-jog~
home again, home again,
we’ll eat pumpkin pie,
kiss the frog and say goodbye.

I enjoyed reading your fun/creative "It Really Isn’t Esoteric" write. What a cut/fun picture. Smiles are made on fun/silly days. Have a fun day/week writing away............

Sometimes it just has to be fun and silly.
