The Superhero Frog Part 1

The Superhero Frog 
                                                                        
   Once  upon a time,there was a frog named
   Curious George
   he swam in the lily pond and slept in a 
   hollow log, 
   It was a very comfortable place for a frog,
   He swam and had great fun,
   He warmed himself lying in the sun,
   But George was often sad,lonely,and scared,
   He didn't have any friends because no one
   would dare,
   Just because he was different, it seemed to
   him no on cared.
   All the town kids wouldn't play with him,
   because of his long green sticky tongue and 
   his green skin, 
   Then one day, he heard some loud shouts!
   He wondered what all the fuss was about,
   He hippty-hopped through a hole in the
   fence,
   Then he was in grass so dense, 
   He could just barely see the sky,                                                                
   This was how he got his name he was
   always asking why?
   But that was a question for another day,
   For right now, he had to be on his way,
   He hippity-hopped out on to the sidewalk,
   He could hear some people talk,
   But he just had to see,
   What all the commotion could possibly,
   possibly be,
   Then he saw a little boy and girl playing ball 
   in the street,
   They were not paying any attention to cars
   or trucks they could meet,
   An old rickety truck,with wobbly wheels, 
   bouncing springs, steam pouring from the 
   radiator spout,
   went bouncing and wobbling down the street
   with a clatter and bang,  
   the driver beep his horn happily along to his
   song as he sang,
   The kids and driver didn't hear the warning 
   shouts of                       
              LOOK OUT! LOOK OUT!
   George saw what was happening and quick 
   as a flash,
   He hippity-hopped to the edge of the 
   sidewalk in a mad dash,
   Then he stuck out his looooooonnnnnnnnng 
   sticky green tongue 
   as fffffffffffaaaaaaaaarrrr as he could, 
   He wrapped it around that boy and girl right
   where they stood, 
                          
            
              
              
   not enough space see my page,part 2 for the  
   rest of the story...
