Crimson’s Creative Challenge
It was love at first sight
The place was just right
For a love-torn toad
Too long on the road
He hopped straight in
And settled down with a big wide grin

And also I think Esmelda is deeply buried in the archives. I might even have deleted her

Well, found her, but my mistake, it’s a frog not a toad, and also (oops) I called it a reptile. But there was a reason for that.

It wasn’t my first thought when I put finger to key … but as with so many of these flash fictions and poems, it kinda wrote itself
