Jungle In Thick Paint

Frogs crowing,
In the sky,
Bird leaping,
In my mind,

Mice wiggle, 
In shallow pools,
The eel feels,
When he wants to,

Fresh ideas are daily put,
Show, they're on the front-foot,
The head is haven, creatures great and small,
Performing as we don't expect them to,

Mighty snail and all his friends,
Run and gasp when they pretend,
Dizzy jungle never sleeps,
Even for the Queens speech,

A chromosome, a virus? It may be,
We are nurturing, feeling, thinking see?
Belong to it, to creativity,
Belong to it, let your creature free,

It will paint you green and white,
The next day red, with gold stripe,
Sometimes dripping where you stand,
An impression to make when you land
