A Frog’s Outlook on Life
The frog calls rrooop, rrooop, rrooop
“I’m here, I’m alive, All is Well”
I listen and reply with joy,
I hear you! – but who can tell...
We both live in this world
And both laugh, shout, and sing
With joy and wonder in all we see
But – who knows what the future will bring!
Rrooop. Rrooop, rrooop, Let it be.
I have no need to know
If tomorrow I can sing again
I trust, and go with the flow.
Perhaps you can also be free
Of your need to control your life,
And like me, enjoy your own pond
Full of beauty and free from strife.
I don’t want to live in a tiny pond.
I want to enjoy everything I can
And joyfully fill the world
With everything available to man.
Rrooop. Rrooop, rrooop, that sounds to me
Like a rapid path to confusion
As you struggle to include everything
Only to find your life is an illusion.
I believe we all have our own tiny ponds
Where we can learn and grow
And explore the world in all its glory
And live fully to the end of our show.
But the magic of our ponds only works
For those who can live and share
Their joy that life goes on until it ends
– and then, Who cares???
