frog: i love you.. when you gave me the comfort that i needed most
pond; just come and visit me, and i will welcome you in my arms
frog: i appreciate the lilies blooming on your hair
pond; no dear, they are not my hair, but the lily leaves
frog; oh! but they too look green as you
pond; i’m not really green, it is just the reflection of my surroundings
frog: well, i guess i got the reflection of my surroundings too
pond; how can you say that? you are not a pond like me
frog; because i got your color…as green as me
pond; so now i know why you love me, so let me love you too
frog: i’m happy, would you please allow me to live with you?
pond; sure! and i will take you to live with me forever
(so the frog lives in the pond happily ever after)
