Halloween night
dressed in a costume
stole some candy
hitting my friend with a broom
With intense emotions
he cast a spell
wishing me to be a frog
in the soil to dwell
I gave a bloodcurdling scream
as the spell came to fruition
everything was gone
except my intuition
Dirty and covered in mud
eating a fly
jumping around
feeling quite spry
Along comes a dog
taking me in his mouth
struggling to be free
afraid this going south
Let go
thrown under a fence
trying to breathe
the air is dense
Finding my friend
mother said to change me back
croaking an apology
using great tact
At home
filled with relief
gave all candy to my friend
small price to stand on two feet

so good! ❤ ❤
Thank you. My dog likes to play with frogs, I thought about the frog’s point of view. Thanks for reading.
