Tabitha Tadpole

Tabitha Tadpole can't seem to get it right She has been a tad slow for her entire life While all her friends are out playing leap frog Tabitha has yet to see her tail fall off All the ribbits that she hears makes it very clear Tab can't seem get herself out of first gear With all her friends time being spent growing shiny teeth Tongues that slurp, lungs that burp, legs to help them leap Tabitha finds she can only swim about How to morph into a frog, she's yet to find that out Though she's never lonely in her dark green slimy pond There's thousands more tadpoles like her where Tabitha comes from While all the friends that she makes one day hop away As all tadpoles turn into frogs when natures call they all obey All except for Tabitha who may never know The taste of fly's when they tickle the sides as they slide down the throat Poor Tabitha may never figure it all out And until then she'll continue to swim chasing her own tail
