The Green Faced Lady

Green faced lady who owns a sweet calf You are truly frightening my other half. Your elongated face is much like a giraffe. And we are both terrified of your laugh. Green faced lady, you look like a witch. We shudder when you come by to ding doing ditch. I have heard that you are a tattletale and a snitch. Your pimply face looks like it has a perpetual itch. Green faced lady, you are more than the status quo. I spied you in my dried-up garden, way down below. You were chewing up my beans, the ones I would like to hoe. How soon you will change back into a frog, we will never know.

Very imaginative! A tattletale, snitch, pimply-faced with a perpetual itch…hilarious!
