The Tree Frog

Hot, dry summer's day
Finally comes to an end
All the tree frogs come to play
Signaling a storm_my friend
The child screams out the window
Shut-up frog in the shadow
Thunder_lightning_quiet

So nice Sara, I love the sounds of these little fellows, they seem to light up the twilight with their chorus.
