Ode to An Expiring Frog, by Charles Dickens (from "The Pickwick Papers"):
Can I view thee panting, lying
On thy stomach, without sighing;
Can I unmoved see thee dying
On a log,
Expiring frog!
Say, have fiends in shape of boys,
With wild hallo, and brutal noise,
Hunted thee from marshy joys,
With a dog,
Expiring frog!
One of my favourites. RRrrribbit.

Read that poem in the Pickwick papers, a search for it on the internet led me to a site "Froggy Poems" (wow...)
Found this really stupid one
Here's a Japanese frog song, contributed by Garfield Dean (garfield@hparc.eurocontrol.fr):
Ka ey roo no oo ta ga
ki ko ey tay koo roo no
kwa kwa kwa kwa
kero kero kero kero kwa kwa kwa.
The translation is something like:
I like to go to the lake
and hear the frogs sing:
kwa kwa kwa kwa
kero kero kero kero kwa kwa kwa.
("Kero" is how frogs croak in Japanese.)
WTF?? I didn't know frogs croaked in different languages. Yah I'm speciest. All you bitches come and sue me.
