Four toads

since April  a tent

was erected  on ground

sadly a place  where slugs

Settled  down

which attracted the Toads

from out of town

imagine the spot

it was dark it was  damp

food was  abundant

we were making our stamp

children arrived

Utopia ours

when the tent  was sold

after all of these hours

being forced to flee

at losing  our powers

of darkness on tap

as the light flooded in

and began to unwrap

the curtain of safety

so what collectively

we decided to hop It

that done frantically

into the bog

helter skelter away

come on dad hurry up

thats what we did say

he was  lethargic  he now had to leap

out of the  ground sheet

find somewhere to sleep

in a creek near a rock find somewhere fast

Our forever  home was a thing of the past
