Reptilian Delight

It wriggled neath the thick dark mud A small tadpole not yet a stud Arms and legs not quite formed Eyes still blind head deformed Covered with a coat of slime To keep him warm and alive No more time to eat or drink Sleepy eyes droop and wink Three months of dreams under mud Soon to awake a reptilian stud With full legs a body and croak so deep Now a bullfrog he awake from his sleep The first full moon of spring Reptilian delight the peepers' bring All sexes dance beneath the moon Croaking a delightful tune
