Have you ever seen two toadstools?
In your own back yard a growing
To tell the truth, I really did
Took 2 photos ~ then did my mowing.
The toadstools is a puzzle to me
I wonder why they named them that?
They're really shaped just like a stool
They were admired by Calico, my cat.
Do real Toads ever sit on them?
Is that the reason for their name?
They were growing near the post
I like them just the same.

It's mystery of how they just spring up
A growing fungus in the ground
As if overnight they do appear
So fast they grow and oh so round.
I guess this fungus dislike the sun
Soon golden spots of tan they'll have
The don't stay long when they come
A wondrous beauty to us, God gave.
