Return to Home Page Return to Poems Index Keep Kicking! - Two frogs fell into a can of cream-- Or so I've heard it told. The sides of the can were shiny and steep, The cream was deep and cold. "Oh whats the use?" said Number 1 "Tis fate--no help's around-- Goodbye, my friend!  Goodbye sad world!" And weeping still, he drowned. But Number 2 was sterner stuff and Dogpaddled in surprise, The while he wiped his creamy face And dried his creamy eyes. "I'll swim awhile, at least," he said-- Or so it has been said-- "It really wouldn't help the world If one more frog were dead." An hour or two, he kicked and swam-- Not once he stopped to mutter, But kicked and swam and swam and kicked, Then hopped OUT....via butter! - Unknown
