CROAKER

by Charles E Minshall

Out at our lily pond
Where lilys belong,
Sits a frog croaking
From dusk 'till dawn.

He doesn't know
I can croak too,
If I can catch him
That's what I'll do.

I remember my mother and father would go frog gigging when I was little in the country in Ohio...I don't THINK I ever tried them..but who knows...a great little funny poem on the subject of frogs...hey, do they taste like chicken?
