The Princess and the Ugly Frog

There once was a Princess who had bad feet.
At first, not uncomfortable, and not knowing what they were,
The lady soon learned that her feet kept getting worse, and started to hurt.
Knew she could not wait or defer,
For they’d keep her from walking soon, she reasonably concurred.
So to get better, and not to deviate; she soon had the surgery to alleviate.

The story then goes that her feet were corrected in a matter of time,
For while she was laid up, to help and assist, of course, she had her prince, then disguised as an ugly frog.
For when she needed him, what else could she do, but ring her bell.
The ugly frog fed, cared, and mended her; held her steady, and wouldn’t let her fall.
Wouldn’t you know, he’d get everything ready, and soon
The ugly frog turned into a Prince after all.
