    Oh Little Frog

    Oh little frog
    why must you torment me
    you croak outside my window
    as I try to sleep
    and when I close my eyes
    its ribbits that i hear
    i put my head under my pillow
    and i try to plug my ears
    but its to no avail
    the croaking pierces through
    so i have to sit up
    and try to think of something new
    i could go and get a net
     try to hunt him down
    but its really quite dark outside
    and mosquitoes are abound
    but then i got to thinking
    the frog, he has the right
    its really just his job i guess
    to be up croaking every night
    and frogs are really nice
    they're really kinda neat
    i guess i can deal with croaking
    since its mosquitoes that they eat

    amen to that...croak away little frog. I hate mosquitoes! (they'd cross a room full of people and livestock to bite me...just me, only me....I hate them!) your writing, though whimsical here, also expresses insight and wisdom. bravo!

    Amazing imagination! This a well-written poem. Congratulations. I really liked it!!! God Bless!!!! :))

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
