There Lie Two Frogs In My Annville Paradise Koi Pond Poem by NHIEN NGUYEN MD

There Lie Two Frogs In My Annville Paradise Koi Pond

Rating: 4.3


There lie two frogs in my Koi pond
One is big and the other small.
They hide near a lily pad
And submerge in clear water to cover their backs.

They expose their brown greenish heads
As they camouflage themselves with green lily pads.
These frogs are my new spring guests
Quietly they face away from mid-spring sunset.

They are my two new pets
I can watch them but I cannot pet.
When they feel not safe
They jump into water for their new hiding place.

As I watch them, the bigger frog starts to croak
He has a friend but he needs a mate.
The sun is going to sleep and the night creeping in
He has the whole night to croak for a date.

I love this pond as it reminds me of my frog pets I have in the 3 little ponds in my back yard. I keep watching the pond pumps to make sure the water is still running for my goldfish and koi in the ponds.

I like this poem. I can see how much this poet likes his two frogs in his Koi pond, by watching these two frogs carefully! ! !

A great ending to a fun poem: He has a friend but he needs a mate... He has the whole night to croak for a date.

I love this poem. It reminds me of my two pet frogs that come to my two little water holes. The one sits on the bark of a tree I put in the water and the other sits on a round rock on the edge of the water. I enjoy listening to them echo their croaks to each other.
