Murder Poem by Ellen frawley

It was love at first sight
You were so cute and sweet
So fragile and tiny as can be
Even though I only saw you for a fraction of a moment
You blended in to the background so well
That i nearly did not notice you standing there
You turned around and glanced at me
My heart in my mouth i could not speak
It would not have mattered any way
You kept on moving and hopped away
A week or two later while mowing the lawn
The engine suddenly cut out
I turned around and froze in fear
My heart jumped and hit the ground
My heart screamed out
But no words came out
I saw your tiny fragile body lying there
Your head slumped
You’re tiny hands as if held up in defence
Please don’t hurt me
But alas it was to late
My darling froggy prince
goodnight
