Lilly-Pads and Frogs

Nothing Changes 
On the Lilly-Pads

From Island to Island
instinctively frogs visit...
boys chasing the girls.

Scottish Frogs

The croak of the wild
the gathering of the ponds...
McFrog family.

this is really cute how you did it. And I see you did a trochee. Which I will enjoy reading when I see them all at once! Wish I could see more poems. I can't believe my time is finished for the morning. I still had at least ten poets to get to and I need to leave early to post my mother day gifts!!

Well I don't think things should change on the lilly pads, Harry! They are so smooth and velvety, and surely each frog dearly loves their own.:) We've frogs and lillypads behind the house, but I've yet to see one brandishing a clamour while wearing a kilt.:)) Wishing you the best Harry!! love, Mikki
