a bullfrogs sanctuary
cannot hide croaking...

upon the lily pad
a bullfrog -
reeds dance

Repose on lilies,
A cessation of nature;
Deep croaks grace the night....

rain drops dribble
rivers run through green grass;
muddied bullfrog blinks...

reddish rippling creek
large bullfrog up for a peek…
two boys with gigs sneak...

 lovely lily pad
palette of green hues-
pondering bullfrog

puffing up his image
a still pond ripples

soft throne of the old bullfrog
life passes by

there once was a three legged dog
who thought he was a bullfrog
instead of a nap or a nip
he preferred a wet kiss
then had his way with a log...

Night Sounds
Miracle Man

The Bullfrog chorus,
has stolen the nights stillness;
not the moons brightness.

never knowing
the bullfrog
in my pond
if he has died

at night 
he never
croaks
so all is

silent except
crickets
quiet is
the only

sound...

an audience of mosquitoes
empty front rows

The enormous
brown,leathery mushroom
had an upside  down cap
more like a birdbath
than a toad's stool
a great talking point for the cane toad and bullfrog....

No longer was she a croaking bullfrog
but a pretty faerie in the middle of the meadow
unless you looked under the lily pad
and saw her crooked polka dot legs...

Biting mosquitoes and chiggers do not take anything away
From the beauty of the orange sky over the marsh at dusk
Bullfrog music adds to the ambiance of the evening...

darkness approaches
your time is at hand!

bullfrogs arise!
strike up the band!

wild rice surrounds you
your kingdom awaits

guard and protect her
'till shadows abate...

Mating Chorus Hush

bullfrog baroom fades 
fall appears delicately discrete
ladys have vanished

soon in mud cradles
far below lace snow and ice
green creatures sleep deep...

Read More

snuggled amongst the clouds, shy 
                       and a smile, the moon listens
                                     to the bullfrog mid cattails and sedge

A bullfrog jumped into my eye socket today.
Pushed my retina aside, and was clearly on his way.
I can feel him jumping around. My sight is blurry.
Doctor, please come quick, as if you are in a hurry....

Everyone has a giggle trigger it seems
If you pull it, just watch the happiness beam
Their smiles will be broad
Like a big old bullfrog
They'll wind up howling and busting their spleen...

water
lily waits
like a royal
throne waits for a princess
to come

promise
of a kiss
that turns a frog
into a prince keeps him
waiting

bullfrog
grows weary
of faerie tales
jumps into the old pond
ripples...

Everyone has a giggle trigger it seems
If you find it, just watch the happiness beam
Their smiles will be broad
Like a big old bullfrog
They'll wind up howling and busting their spleen

Bird Brain

Now here is a strange pair of folk
If one swallows, the other croaks
Looks quite a tussle 
Bird wants to guzzle 
But the bullfrog hangs on, says nope

Stagnant...as the water of a springless pond...waiting...covered in the culmination of surface slime.---deborah burch©7.19.17

Stagnant springless pond
Covered in green surface slime
Still bullfrog waits
