The Girl and the Frog

Once upon a time a boy of lost became accursed by a witch of evil to reside as a frog beneath the earth of tree

As the years went by his parents grieved aging ten years a year for none found no trace of him nowhere sought

Inconsolable they leaned on each other for comfort to ease the hard griping loneliness and pain of his lost

One day a girl who ventured far far in a forest of confusing thick green foliage of overwhelmed closed in around her

Crying big tears she pushed at tree by tree trying to find her way free free as grasping limbs held her released her

Stumbling falling in a hole of undiscovered she rolled over over until she reached bottom hard soft

Wiping cloudy eyes with hands of persistence she looked around cringing within as she saw only dark gloom space after space

Feeling distressed she wandered around looking for a way out until she came across a huge scary looking frog that was as huge as a horse

Stepping backward she looked around for a weapon to protect herself safe finding none she clutched huge bugs to feed him tempt him to spare eating her

Handing him bugs of swat temptation she watched as the frog transformed to handsome lad of young

Grasping her hand he led her to opening and home to marry when grown
