Hide and Shriek

In the old house a creak
We went in for a peek
The floor boards all squeak
A ghostly shriek
Makes my knees go weak
My futures looking bleak
I'm on a loosing streak
Please! no more hide and seek.

Reads like a scary house in which to be..Good luck in the contest with this exciting work..I don't like scary anything..Yes, the tree frogs sing when rain comes and most of the other times they are silent..If there is a lot of moisture in the air, they will sing..They reproduce when it rains..I guess they are singing for joy..Sara
