This toad is in our garden now.
He hides behind the yellow flowers
blending into the mulch. He
does not blend in with the
blue flowers though. He blends
into the tree, and the mulch.
Flowers, as far as the eye
can see. Then we see our
blended, hidden Mr. Toad.

The toad is depressed because
of the garden. He has been
thinking of life since he lost
his family there. He finds the
garden dull and boring. The bland
garden has ruined his life.
