A Day at the Pond

I went to the pond to catch a frog,
I searched and searched on every log.

I brought with me a great big tub,
And sat it beneath a flowering shrub.

I searched up high in the trees,
And scraped up both of my knees.

I crawled around on the ground,
looking for something laying around.

I had mud all over me from my head to my toes,
I even had it on my nose!

My stomach told me it was time to eat,
So I put my shoes back on my feet.

As I walked away feeling very sad,
I saw a frog sitting on a lily pad.

My face lit up with a great big smile,
for he must of been there for quite awhile.

I leaped into the water up to my knees,
and he jumped away with the greatest of ease!
