Mr. Toad Tells His Story


 We had a terrific thunderstorm over Saturday night, and then, before dawn, a visitor.

Can you tell me, Mr. Toad,
just where do your kind reside
when the waters have not flowed;
just where do you hide?
To the river it's a mile,
up the mesa it's four hundred feet,
so tell me, and we'll share a smile...
just how do we meet?
The Toad, he seems to meet my eyes,
but Ribbit's all he says.
Something 'bout him does look wise,
and as I hold his gaze
I find that there is wonder here
as clouds pass and the stars appear.

Sylvia tried to eat a toad. The toad was offended, and hopped away hissing, and Sylvia figured she'd stick to ice cream.

  2. We love Mr. Toad. It's the fourth time this year we've seen him. He was tiny at a time and now he's chunky and strong.
