Two...In A Small Pond
Life can be very amusing sometimes,if you're open to the possibilities . One never knows where the fun will surface ! A morning presented itself with absolutely no prior committments . I seized the opportunity for a few lazy moments to savor the beautiful light filtering through my happy plants and the comfort of cotton sheets . A persistant voice intruded into my consciousness,but I refused to rouse . A backyard neighbor has breakfast each day in the back room of his house . As the dining table is beside the open door , his morning phone calls are audible to all those who surround him . His impassioned opinions raise the volume of his very distinctive voice . Soon another sound was heard . It was that of a frog who found my little pond and has taken up royal residence . I listened to the two outside voices in a dreamy way until I noticed there was indeed a pattern . The pattern was as follows : neighbor : blah,blah,BLAH,BLAH,BLAH ! frog : glunk,glunk, HARRUMPH,HARRUMPH,HARRUMPH ! Many variations followed , of course,but the conversation was obviously between two cronies.....that one was oblivious to the other made it even funnier ! The more the neighbor harranged his caller , the more the frog responded with his own opinion . Helpless with laughter , I was disappointed when the man hung up the phone , but I cannot hear either again without smiling at their conversation !
