Why frogs are magic and some of this is true .
If you kiss a frog It could turn into a prince But if you throw it against the wall It still could. Frogs are that way. They hatch in wetlands Sometimes in trees And the tadpoles swim around And eat algae and grow their tails disappear slowly legs emerge slowly their little mouths widen slowly and nostrils instead of gills they must have air they frog kick to surface they gasp. They leap upon lily pads Or a princesses’ beds Purely magical.

I awakened to a thousand frogs in my bedroom. I grabbed a broom and turned on the lights. The little critters all disappeared. They are magical!

Wonderful poem about our hippy, hop-pity, friends. Yes, freeze a frog and it comes back to life again. WE can learn a lot from frogs...

Wonderful. Frogs are such misunderstood creatures. What you are describing is that they develop from the embryo in a fluid, like humans, and then emerge from the water to breathe the air and hop on the land. Their anatomy is so much like humans that they have been used for torture in biology classes in high schools for eons.

The most wonderful thing about some frogs is that they can be frozen solid, and then, in spring of back to life magically� Hence their magical powers you describe in your poem.

One of the most pleasing sounds is that of the spring peepers. A ribbiting poem.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
