She is Not Getting Away

She is not getting away! Yelled my Cousin Dawn.
She swiftly jumped with both feet into the pond.
Came up holding a bullfrog who was twice her size.
The creature looked irritated, I could tell by his eyes.

That is disgusting! Yelled her prissy acting brother.
She is fine, leave her alone, said her powerful mother.
Cousin Dawn held her prize high up in the air.
The frog rolled her eyes this time, like she did not care.

Catch and release! I said to my Cousin Dawn.
I did not like seeing her stealing creatures out of my pond.
I will help her said her brother, as he grabbed for the frog.
This caused a big ruckus and an argument in our old bog.
