Oh little green toad!

This is a little ode that my fellow scientists and I wrote:

ODE to a TOAD
Oh little toad, I found you outside my humble abode.
Upon the road of which I strode.
I tried and tried to keep you alive, but alas I failed, and you died, so I put you in formaldehyde.
Now you lie belly up, while I prepare to cut you up.
A single tear slides from my eye, as my scalpel slices through your hide.
You internal beauty, open for all to see,
As we study your anatomy.
Thanks for the path of learning you have showed.
Oh my, oh my, little green toad.
