Notes About The Poem

Image result for Pictures of Tree Frogs Of GeorgiaHow can anything this small make that much noise????

Tree Frogs In Water

Fresh water the requisite for frogs
Hydration for their eggs
They sing as precipitation falls
And swim with those legs

High pitched croaks invigorate
Their desire, leave some awake
Crystallization of chlorine
Only helps the cycle break

Pool water impermeable
When those slimy eggs float
Precipitation pleasantries
Washed away by that note
