Quickie-Day Of Woe Poem by Loke Kok yee
Quickie-Day Of Woe
There is a snake waiting down below
With its tongue flickering to and fro
If you pee now, it might make it go
If not, it will be a day of woe
I knew it today that a snake is afraid of frog's pee, though I knew a frog's pee causes allergy. A nice poem with an element of fun in it.
Frogs are perceptive amphibians. They know when to remain in water and when to come back to earth. Loke, though you intended it as a humour poem, yet i perceive it with deep significance. The animals are sharp and quick to perceive danger. They react quickly to avoid being attacked. Loke, i love these little animal stories. Each has a moral to tell.10+++
Thank you for adding value to my poem, maybe I should give it more thought and go beyond the humour, but then that will be too difficulty for me. Thanks Geeta
A cautionary tale....of what an ordinary need/desire can lead to! I laughed, and then saw the substance behind this gem. Well done, Loke!
Thanks Mj, for your value adding comment; When I wrote it, I only saw the humour.

These frogs pee every now and then! Frogs are always in danger of being swallowed by snakes as they turn to be the favorite dish of snakes....! Unless they do something like peeing, their little lives are in danger! Love the picture so much! Cute guys, especially the hanging one! !
The hanging one was the one that was suppose to do the peeing, reminded me of one who loves ice-cream. Ho! Ho! Ho! Thanks Valsa
