Little Frogs

16 dec 2012 9:42 am

Little frogs little frogs long have my patience endured
Now after centuries my supper will be served

You are such special little frogs that cooking you is a chore
It is worth the hunger and wait your simmering souls I want more and more

It wont be long my little treats
just lay back and swim and sleep

I know the water is a little warm
but very soon you will feel no harm

Your souls are mine and it is time
Not much longer until I dine

It really is sad that we live our day to day lives only as human and disregard the real us which is Soul. We are not bodies with souls we are Souls with bodies and our bodies are like cocoons in that one day it will die and we will be released to eternity. Either with God our Father or in hell. It is our choice. We simmer in our sin as we soak up the temptations of satan and we fall asleep and die. if we become aware we can jump out of that pot and help others to get out too.

I am glad you enjoyed it but there is no humor in it. The frogs represent humans who ignore what going on and except the temporary pleasures of sin. The cook represents satan who give the temptations to get you to forfeit your eternal soul for a temporary thrill. old saying that if you put a frog in hot water he will jump out but if you gradually turn up the heat he will be cooked alive
