Frog Prince

She sat on the bank

Of a beautiful river

She had the peace

            And quiet and shiver

She saw a frog

            Jumping on the petals

Of the flowers scattered

            In water that settles

The frog jumped

            She was scared

Just one kiss

            “Only one”, he dared

She knew the story

            Of the one frog prince

She had always waited

            For “The One” ever since

She closed her eyes

            With a perfect pout

The frog did the same

            Before she’d a doubt

The kiss was weird

            She could feel

Opened her eyes

            Not a big deal

The frog was a frog

            She was shocked

What happened?

            Her heart got blocked

Well… he smiled

            It was really cool

We do celebrate

            The April fool
