Singing Competetion
Animals gathered in the forest
for annual singing competition
at the table was the old big toad
presiding as adjudicator guest
weaver bird sang so well that day
monkey sang so well, playing fiddle
snake hissed and danced zigzag
frog croaked , jumped all over
all other animals did their best
surprise in final result it was
frog with rough voice was best
animals rioted and threw mad
but guest adjudicator told them;
“I did my best to get best singer
frog beat everybody in the hall
even if he was poor, remember
blood is thicker than water”!
