Autumn woods love – The frog and the Princess
Our story continues in a kingdom glowing bright. It is a beautiful kingdom, especially at night. Although it isn’t normal to be on the castle concourse so late, we had to see this. It just couldn’t wait! Look there! Up against the castle wall. There is a jumpy shadow, that isn’t very tall.
How long has it been, since a frog dared hop in this place? If he gets caught, the castle guard will give chase. This slimy frog has been tossed before. Flung just like a game ball, for a great score. Furthermore, it was a castle guard, that did the deed. Therefore this jumpy frog, best take heed.
Oh so stealthily, a jumpy toad goes forth. He’s heading for the tower, toward the starry north. Whatever will he do, once he gets there? He’ll never get in, there’s castle guards everywhere. Nevertheless, and with gusto, the lad carries on. And judging by his look, he’s already too far gone.
Autumn Woods Love
On the other side of the concourse, beady eyes scan the night. It’s a castle guard, and he’s watching everything in sight. Yet somehow he misses a frog with a flame flickering so bright. Thus a frog climbs the tower to the top. And goes through the window. In one hop.
Now it so happens another, also watches the starry night. But her eyes are more lovely, and everything about her is so right. From the east tower the lovely Lady, is wishing upon a star. When all of a sudden she sees a flickering light from afar. Over in the north tower, it appears something is hopping around. Then it flips wildly…and falls to the ground.
Over at the north tower, and laying upon the ground, a nearly splattered slimy frog, can be found. While trying to deliver a burning flame, in through the window, a flying stone came. Knocked that frog straight to the ground, where he landed, with nary a sound.
Now upon him the castle guard has leapt. Yet there is a surprise, when his feet are swept. Flippers out for the thrills. It appears a frog has some finja skills. Holding fast to the flame, he must deliver just the same. Now a frog, in a row, fin to toe, wouldn’t you know.
The frog and the Princess
Yet with every finja move that frog threw, a castle guard knew just what to do. Till one slight mistake, was the last a jumpy frog would make. Seized by a dastardly, and clammy hand. A frog gets a cartwheel view of the land. Round and round that frog goes. From another one of those damn castle guard throws.
Now, in the east tower, a lovely Princess watches with surprise. The special way that slimy frog flies. Tossed like so many damaged goods. Straight into, the Autumn woods. How can a villainous guard so mistakenly, put a stop to an on-time delivery?
What will happen now is anyone’s guess. This has turned into quite a mess. The festival of lights is mere hours away. And the delivery of the flame is delayed. Meanwhile over in the Autumn wood, a frog awakens from being flung real good. He hops up, thinks of her, and makes haste. Once again, there is no time to waste…
