Froggy

The Disgruntled Princess

Gruntled & Disgruntled AKA 
pleased & displeased

You appear to be disgruntled,
may I ask the reason why 
I never see you smile,
why do you only frown?

You answer gruffly saying,
once upon a time I was gruntled
and the charming prince was mine,
but nasty witchy-poo preferred him 
     as a frog!

Now my days are gloomy,
disgruntled night and day
without a gruntled spell to cast
I might as well just fade away.

The only thing that I can do
to once again be gruntled 
is ask nasty witchy-poo to cast 
     a spell 
and make me a froggy too~

but then nasty witchy-poo
would be disgruntled too!
