Princess and the Frog Tribute

Tiana is glowing with beauty; adding a gorgeousness to the swamp
Croaking frogs gather, to admire her, recognizing her goodness
A saxophone playing crocodile jumps into action, showing admiration.

Tiana turns back and forth from human to a fly-catching frog
She can transmogrify any time she wants to, fitting into both worlds.
The night stars shine upon her, gracing her with extra bouts of magic.

Her gifts are plenty, and her admirations are many.  
The everglades share her talents with the people of New Orleans.
For tonight, however, she belongs to the Glades, enticing its unique song.

Ah, to be like Tiana...to have "gifts" and be able to use them in whatever setting one finds oneself.

We all have gifts; it is terrific when we figure them out!
