The poem the 'Frog and the nightingale' was my favorite in the tenth standard. In my opinion, it was one of the best examples of sarcastic humor and had a very amusing rhyme scheme....My friends and I could remember only the first two lines of the poem and we made up the rest ...The result of our boredom, turned out to be a trifle bit less boring, and I loved it !!
There was a frog in Bingle Bog
Who lived beneath a thick green log
He hopped outside in the middle of the night
To see if he could find some food in sight
But, no! alas! That could not be
He was blind and he could not see
He called his friend from way up there
And raised his hands up in a prayer
But unfortunetaly his prayers went in vain
His thoughts were marred by the slime in his brain
But his hunger he could not overcome
His tummy went rum rum rum rum rum
Eventually he was nearly dead
As his empty stomach could not be fed
As he lay and breathed his last
He was killed by his unending fast
And hence ended the story of the Bingle Bog Frog
Who lived beneath the thick green log
By the three mouseketeers
In fond memory of the bingle big frog.
