The frog sits on his lily pad

Buzzing and bumbling

For a lady friend

.

He lets out a big bellow

And falls into the pond

Many things he sees there

The world turns upside down

.

Water goes upward towards the surface

Greens tickle his nose from a stony sky

His eyes are lamps

To an underground world

.

An attempted noise

And water fills his mouth

Eyes big

Floating upwards

Bidding farewell to the watery sky

.

Above on the lily pad

Flowers pink with petals

In and out

Breath from the blue sky

Winking clouds

Over a bright sun

Glimmering off the mucus

Of the frog’s potential mate

Green as the algae

Of the stony sky
