Gator Al and His Little Pal
A marshy pond was habitat
For Alligator Al.
He was a lonely 'gator,
He needed much a pal.
He jumped into the murky pond
And swam around the bayou.
Then soon he heard a feeble croak
That sounded just like "Hi You"
He peered around and then espied
A water sodden log.
And clutching to the top of it
There was a skinny frog.
"Hey, gator, how about a ride
To get me to the shore?
I was stranded on this log last week.
I can't hang on much more."
"I'm looking for a pal," said Al
On whom I can depend."
"Take me to the shore," Frog said
"And I will be your friend."
"Hop on my back ," said Al to Frog
Amidst Frog's joyful laughter.
Soon the buddies reached the shore,
Good friends for ever after.
