Unrequited love wrapped in a tongue twister! I want more than a "heart" imogi. Something with laughter and/or a caring hug...

That's 2 for 2 on the tongue twisters, and 2 I'd never heard before. No selling "seashells on the seashore" or picking pecks of "pickled peppers", here. These new to me are great fun, although I did do better with Theophilus sifting his thistles than the three-toed she toad recitation. Thanks Clara!

It always surprises me to see a vertical frog. I know such things exist but I've never seen one with my IRL eyeballs. I love the color of your window paint, too.

That tongue twister is hard even to read much less say aloud!

And thus was recounted the story

of tree toads

who were toed, in their glory.

Vetoed was he;

yet undaunted was she --

and kisses were shared

with her missus.

The leaves, it was said,

did bear witness.

This particular day needed to be redeemed from the get-go. Thank you for such delightful and inspiring whimsy!
