I'm Nobody, Who Are You?

I'm nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there's a pair of us -- don't tell!
They'd banish us -- you know!

How dreary to be somebody!
How public like a frog
To tell one's name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!
Emily Dickinson


Another poem I had to learn when I was a child...and I found several different versions on the internet...hope this one is close to true!!

I am there in my little froggie's eye...feeling sentimental because he won't be here much longer...summer is winding down.
