Posy Pose, Grand Plot and The Mayor’s Mansion
Shadows that are dark as pitch
gather over FUSSBUT DITCH.
This is where all kinds of frogs
hope to clear up their bog.
The hopping frogs of many types
are large and small, while some have stripes.
Two frogs that eavesdrop, slink and spy
are wise guys by the names of Snoop and Pry.
A grand fund-raising Hop-In Day
was dreamed up by 'The Queen of May'.
POSY POSE, the chosen Queen,
is dainty, sleek and always keen
to gather funds to light the bog
for her special friends, the frogs.
Her father is the Fussbut mayor,
who is a champion polo player.
Posy's rocking elder brother
looks just like their stylish mother.
Her brother's stage name suits him well
because he always seems to yell.
Roary is his preferred name
and he dreams most days of fame.
He is on a special mission
to become a famed musician.
He often raps to Ziggy Zag,
a snake that rests by Posy's bags.
Posy's bags are made to order.
They are strange but full of wonder.
Ziggy is a serious snake.
He wears a monocle with flare
and takes care of the mayor's dazzling daughter,
but he cannot wave or canter.
His slicked back hair and smart bow tie
look so stylish as he glides.
A 'tache sits underneath his monocle.
This makes him look so cool and comical.
He has no need for hands or feet.
As a snake, he is complete.
“Posy Pose can do no wrong!”
calls the snake who tags along
with Posy to most places that she goes.
They look for fancy shoes and bows. ...
