Little tadpole swimming in the pond, <br />Your'e losing your precious tail, <br />Of which you must be oh so fond. <br />But soon it will be, of no avail. <br /> <br />Your'e growing some legs, <br />And soon you will be, <br />Climbing out of the dregs, <br />And leaping to be free. <br /> <br />No longer a puny little tadpole, <br />But a little Leopard Frog, <br />Who has emerged from that slimy hole, <br />Leaping away all through the bog. <br /> <br />9/13/10 Alton Texas<br /><br />Juan Olivarez<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/little-tadpole/
