The Bullfrog Dreams of Flying

Thomas W Case



He wants to shake the moss off his back
and leave the tad-poles behind.
They remind him of his misspent youth
and wasted Spring.
The blackbird sings of blue skies,
far off lands,
and the bullfrog dreams of flying.

    Now Thomas you outdid yourself with this gem. I'm going to start calling you Aesop and the metaphor goes deep. Lovely, one of my favorites of yours
