Analysis of The rain and the frog!



Once apon a time there lived a frog!
 He spent his time by a river in the rainforest eating live frogs!
For years he had got used to the same routine!
 He would wake up grab a few flies for breakfast and take a swim along the deep end of a small stream!
Then one day he heard a loud pop!
 Immediately, he jumped out of the water!
"What was that," he wondered in dread and horror!
 Soon after that lighting struck a tree and lite it up in flames!
Strait to the ground it dropped and smoked as it burned up in little time from it's flames!
 The witty little frog thought I'll find a place to hide!
Right before it reached a dead fallen tree a drop of rain hit it's head unto it's surprise!
 That was warm what amazing rain!
It had not felt that before it was used to coldness coming from the water in it's plains!
 Later that day the storm went away!
Yet, it did not forget what altered his very land!
 Years later it grew old and perpared to die!
A gift it had been given it could not despise!
 With a smile on his face he closed his eyes!
Life had given him everything he ever wanted!
 Even, warm rain from the sky!
