Toad Annoys Two Friends
Stork wheels his best friend up and down the road.
Someone makes fun of him. It is a simple ugly toad.
He is my pal, and I want to please him, so go away.
The toad hops a couple of inches, then decides to stay.
Seriously, the stork says, I will eat you if you do not leave.
The toad laughs into his long sheer dotted swiss sleeve.
Rhino says “Eat him! I dare you, dear friend!”
So now I must tell you, for the toad, this is the end.
