The Toad In The Road

 

A toad sat in the road

a car came along and drove

o'er toad who then explodes

results, a messy road

 

Said toad was so reposed

never knew he was exposed

as we can now disclose

the toads part of road

 

As cars go to and fro

they don't see toad in road

the toad too dumb to know

he should have stopped, not goed

 

This story sadly shows

do not mix toads and roads

'cause when it comes to blows

toad ends up decomposed.

dk - I liked everything about this. Particularly 'not goed'. Clever

MC - "toad in the hole". Clever

Ha-ha.
With the state of some roads these days, he should have visited
one of the pitted surfaces in need of repair and survived as a "toad in the hole".

Dk,

You are so tuned in to the seasons. It's toad time here - due north of ya' - they are all over the roads, particularly when it rains.
