Once a Pond o' Time

  
     Once a pond o’ time
        there was this grin-frog

     He desired a dry, lil’ e-pad
        his marsh-no-mellow
          ~ water-logged!

haha, I'm pond-ering too, just like Bj Legros Kelly, below. I think the grin-frog will do OK even if his marsh-mellow marsh is not so mellow, and waterlogged. Why - because a grin-frog knows how to keep smiling. It kind of reminds me of an old song, "Little White Duck".

:)) Break an egg...well, we scramble it. Very fortunate, I consider myself, for having been born in the USA. Lots of ponds and a choice of pads.
