My Mushroom Toad

Beady brown eyes
Mushroom-like hat
"No smoking," he says.
Now how about that!

He lives on my shelf
With the other knick-knacs
Funny like me
But life, yes, he lacks

Bought at the mall
On a day of pure fun
Only one dollar
My love had begun

He sits on the rocks
Amongst the nice flowers
Too bad my good toad
Has no magical powers

He looks oh so real
But has a bar code
I love him to death
He is my little stone toad
