TALE OF TWO FROGS

[charliegirl]

Two frogs fell in a deep cream bowl,
One was an optimistic soul;
But the other one took the gloomy view
"We'll drown" he lamented without much ado.



And with a last despairing cry
He flung up his legs and said "Goodbye".
Quote the other frog with a steadfast grin,
"I can't get out but I won't give in.



I'll just swim around till my strength is spent,
Then I'll die the more content".
Bravely he swam to work his scheme,
And his struggles began to churn the cream.



The more he swam, his legs a flutter,
The more the cream turned into butter.
On top of the butter at last he stopped,
And out of the bowl he gaily hopped.



What is the moral? It's easily found;
If you can't hop out, keep swimming around.

That was cute, but I couldn't help but wonder what the person who eventually used the butter thought when he found the first frog, dead in the middle!

Maybe he just melted it and had frog legs dripping in butter.
