“Come and see the toad that glowed!”
an enterprising raven crowed
with such excitement when he spoke
that all the woodland creatures showed,
but disappointment quickly loomed
because they knew the act was doomed
when the gloomy toad was heard to croak
“The firefly has been consumed.”

Well, this is a twist - I love the "gloomy toad" croaking "the firefly has been consumed." Clever poem.
You are what you eat! clever poem. Vb
LOL, delightful, I loved it. :-)
if you kiss a toad do you get a Cardinal?
Nice. Funny. And not at all average!
Brilliant! Reminds of fairs when you roll up to see the sideshow and are disappointed. Again, brilliant!
