Keep Swimming (By: Author Unknown) Keep Swimming (By: Author Unknown)
Two frogs fell into a deep, cream bowl Two frogs fell into a deep, cream bowl
One was an optimistic soul, One was an optimistic soul,
But the other took the gloomy view, But the other took the gloomy view,
“We’ll drown,” he lamented without much ado. “We’ll drown,” he lamented without much ado.
And with a last despairing cry, And with a last despairing cry,
He flung up his legs and said, “Goodbye.” He flung up his legs and said, “Goodbye.”
Quote the other frog, with a steadfast grin, Quote the other frog, with a steadfast grin,
“I can’t get out, but I won’t give in. “I can’t get out, but I won’t give in.
I’ll just swim around till my strength is spent I’ll just swim around till my strength is spent
Then I’ll die the more content.” Then I’ll die the more content.”
Bravely he swam to work his scheme, Bravely he swam to work his scheme,
And his struggles began to churn the cream. And his struggles began to churn the cream.
The more he swam, his legs aflutter, The more he swam, his legs aflutter,
The more the cream turned to butter. The more the cream turned to butter.
On top of the butter at last he stopped, On top of the butter at last he stopped,
And out of the bowl, he gaily hopped. And out of the bowl, he gaily hopped.
What is the moral? What is the moral?
It’s easily found. If you can’t hop out, It’s easily found. If you can’t hop out,
Keep swimming around. Keep swimming around.
