I DIVED INTO THE CAULDRON

She said she was a white witch; Her spells were all benign. If I dived into her cauldron, I’d come out feeling fine. It was full of magic potions, Selected with great care, Guaranteed to benefit Anyone who’d dare. She seemed a nice old lady Who wouldn’t hurt a fly. So, throwing caution to the wind, I gave the thing a try. I dived into the cauldron And joyfully submerged. But, alas, I was an ugly frog When I finally emerged. Now I live in a smelly pond. How did it come to this? If there’s a princess out there, Please come and give me a kiss.
