GREEN FROG SHOES

I met a very clever, verbal two year old yesterday named Wyatt.  He was wearing green rubber clogs.  This poem is for him.

In my green froggy clogs
I can jump, jump, jump.
Over old, dead tree logs
and traffic safety bumps.

    OK now it is your turn.  Today is Thursday, and I'm thirsty.  Can you write a poem about things you like to drink?  Have fun.  (Perhaps a simple couplet.)  You are welcome to leave your poem in the comments below.  Thank you. 
  Thanks for coming by for a visit.

    Joy,
    Love how your brain went from green shoes to frogs. Creative mind! I also like that the child jumps over dead tree logs and then is able to return to a "civilized world" and jump over man-made "logs." I never saw that parallel before. You're good!
