Back to the Swamp
The Frog Prince said, “My pretty miss, how I shall miss your pag•eant•ry and
pomp ! But my dea r, I fea r my met•a•mor•pho•sis is near. Big feet will soon
loudly clomp and likely upon me stomp. Therefore, off I must romp to the safety
of some nearby swamp !
Story 216
John
John was a con jailed in Tucson for stealing a goose and a long-necked swan. He
was given striped clothes to don, or in other words, to put on.
Although his hopes for parole were wan, still he dreamt of being far gone to a land
far yon to start a new life with his waiting wife Yvonne.
