Helping in a emergency
Surely was not frog's intent
But as he swam away
In monsoon rain that day
Alone and not so content
Mouse jumped on the back
To escape from his home
He now had no more
Happy mouse his spirits soar
After monsoon he can roam

Author Notes
In 2006, a photographer in India snapped this photo of a mouse perched on the back of a frog as floodwaters rose. The annual summer monsoon rains arrived early that year, but this lucky little mouse managed to keep its head above water, thanks to a froggy friendship.
