FROG KING'S TUMMY ACHE

Amidst the slime of boggy bogs
The slim and trim barked loggy logs
Slithery sloths and grimy grogs
There lives the majestic green king of frogs, who eats jellybeans for fun.
He always keeps a bucket full right next to his royal side.
Rears back his head,
Slings out his tongue and eats them all with pride.
First the green ones,
Then the blue,
All for him,
None for you.
He never shares.
We know that’s true,
But he’s the king, what can we do?

The frog king eats every last yellow and every last red,
Then lays down to rest on his lily pad bed.

THEN…

Sure enough as cakes do bake,
The king’s royal tummy begins to ache.
And as he thought with thoughtful care
He proclaimed to his kingdom
"Next time I’ll share!”
