Muddle Tea
by Rhonda Maneki
A cafe
A bog
A frog?
Oh, yes, the frog.
A menu
No wait! A menu?
Yes, a menu how odd.
A Puddle for two
- please -
This way Miss Goose, says the penguin waiter.
(A Penguin)? yes, a penguin, get over it!
A floral purse a straw hat - a Muddle tea she says perhaps?
she nestles and waits,
splashes a bit,
preens and fluffs.
Ah, she is a
little nervous.
A hop a plop and splash
~charming~
Muddle tea for two at last.
