Frog Poem
Heart of marsh, cattails sway,
Kingdom where croakers hold sway.
Chorus rises as day wanes,
Frog poem, notes refrained.
Emerald guardians on lily pads,
Leaping, diving, playful lads.
Moon's soft ray,
Their dance, their play.
Song weaves rich, deep,
Lullaby, world to sleep.
Symphony bold,
Frog poem, story told.
Raindrops, cool night,
Dew on grass, morning light.
Ribbit and croak, tales unfold,
Frog poem, never old.
Night falls soft,
Marsh rhythm aloft.
Every croak, world unfolds,
Frog poem, nature's stories told.
