I'd never seen so many together like that before, I never have again. I have a similar memory of looking into the water at a shallow spot and for as far as the eye could see, the bottom being covered with crab. I think those days are gone.... This poem is a great reminder to cherish what we have.Deb Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03729615248033326334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-60891661132026839802008-10-29T21:56:00.000+00:002008-10-29T21:56:00.000+00:00gosh, this one hits hard...gosh, this one hits hard...polonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12631341810150848122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-81473183069222797742008-10-29T01:27:00.000+00:002008-10-29T01:27:00.000+00:00How very poignant.

We have the same trouble here - frogs are becoming a thing of the past except for the huge American Bullfrog which eats all the local frogs, ducklings and anything else it can get in its rather large mouth. It was brought over for restaurants but some were released into the wild when eating frog legs was no longer a fad.Janice Thomsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02506920585319893814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-50085320023280698092008-10-28T20:40:00.000+00:002008-10-28T20:40:00.000+00:00Hello!

Beautiful picture on your header! <BR/><BR/>This is an excellent poem with a perfect title. Very sad but in a beautiful way. I love frogs, and the frog waving has two different levels of meanings for me. Thank you for sharing.
