Leap Frog
Said one frog to another
Let’s travel cross this field together
Croak, leap past rock, then hold
Does not matter fast or slow
Again the first said to the other
Now crouch down then I’ll leap over
Said the second to the first
Then I’ll jump while you’re at rest
Bounding past each obstacle
Fitful journey, loose control
Tail to head and head to toe
Over, under, through they go
Eventually field’s grass edge they find
O’er gravel, now pond on lily wind
Each companion to the other
Joyful leaping life together
