its cute. really 🙂
Lovely!
Currently, our pond is full of very happy frogs!
🙂
absurdoldbird,
Welcome back! I meant to tell you last time, I love your name. We’ve got frogs too, but I can’t tell if they are still alive or hybernating. The pond still has ice on parts of it. I’m afraid we may have lost some of them. My tree frogs haven’t actually started their songs this year. I’m looking forward to that. Thanks for coming by and sharing a note.
Even frogs enjoy their existence…what more with man?
I love this one Yousei!
Amity,
ribbit, ribbit 😀
Frogs are great aren’t they? 😉

I can just imagine this scene you’ve shared. Thank you again for your visit and comments.
This is the kind of infestation I like!
Me too. Spreadin’ the love. 😀
Hey Yousei! I love this haiku. I just put up some brand-spanking-new pictures on my blog. Just anted to let you know. 😀

week 9 perfect poet!
enjoy!
Jingle,
Thank you. Be by later. 🙂
despite the simplicity, i feel that your poems capture the true objectives of a haiku ~ each piece illustrates a story that is more pronounced through imagination than words, but which words have induced. they’re absolutely lovely ♥ ~
thank you. for sharing your work and for the kind words and welcome to the rally : )
Samanthayeh,
Thank you for your visit and sweet comment. I try. You inspire me to try even harder. Thank you. Love your gravatar!
Aw, but they’re so cute! I wish we had such an infestation round these parts…
Joseph,
They’re quite the singers. Happy you came by.
😀 I love it..

So glad you like it. Thanks for coming by. 🙂
Wonderful blog. I’m entranced. Loved the frog Haiku.
David King,
Welcome. So glad you like it here and enjoyed the haiku. Please come by any time. You’re most welcome.
The Frog Chorus – I can hear it now.
Stan Ski,
I welcome the silly croakers. I’ve had quite enough of winter. I won’t really hear them for a while yet. But I anticipate their songs this year. 🙂
OH! That’s just ROCKIN’! I’m very visual, so…You just gave me a very funny slimely romantic picture along with a great giggle! Thank You and Cheers and Namaste. 🙂
Blissbeam,
Glad you enjoyed the amphibian choir. Hope to stop and see you later.
Just this past weekend did we hear our first peepers. Such a happy exciting song. Love your haiku.
Lisa,
Oh, lucky you. It’s still too cold here, and I’d say we’re weeks away. But it was easy to remember their songs from the past several years, they are such enthusiastic serenaders. 😉 Thanks for stopping by and for sharing your moment.
lovely haiku!!
rdl,
Thank you for the visit and complement. I’ll stop by to see you soon.
True, true, but haven’t heard any yet, here.
Sandy,
I haven’t really heard any either. The memories of their songs came back when I saw the grass appear as the snow melted. I imagine it will be a while yet. They’re probably still sleeping. It did get to 60 yesterday. So . . . 🙂
Yousei I think u captured more than a frog symphony I think u captured a world symphony with this Haiku xx
william,
Thank you. You are always so encouraging in your comments. If I have captured a world symphony, then I am moving closer to writing good haiku. Thank you for visiting, my friend.
infestation and frogs in the name of love. big smile.
Hi David,
They do make one smile. Such enthusiastic casanovas. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
if only love would infest all who hears its melody…

~IS,
Wonderful thought and wish. Thank you for stopping by and blessing me with that.
Haiku! Made me think of home. Thanks!
BFG,
Welcome. Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment. I’m glad my haiku brought you thoughts of home. Come by again some time. 🙂
What a beautiful infestation and sign of spring!
gabrielle,
Welcome. Thank you for the kind comment and for the visit. I’ll stop by your place soon.
I’ve always wonder what the frogs do all winter…are they composing next spring’s musical score….like the poem. 🙂
slpmartin,
Most certainly! Probably planning out their solos. You know the best soloist gets the girl. 😉
I’m chuckling a little with this, Yousei. I love the “creep, creep, creep”. I just hope they stay in the pine trees. Nice haiku. Vivid image, once again.
Leslie,
It’s still a little early here for my symphony. I believe they’re still hibernating. I keep listening for them, thinking of last year’s choruses. 🙂 Thanks for the comment and visit.
I can picture that, too.
You’ll find mine here.
anthonynorth,
Thank you for the visit, comment, and link. I’ll be over soon. 🙂
Wow, I am really liking love song infestation. Like listening to a choir of tree frogs. Beautiful and earthy.
Technobabe,
Glad you like the frog haiku. It is finally feeling and looking like spring here. Most of my grass has lost its snow blanket and temps hit 60 yesterday. 😯 It felt awesome. I even saw some daffodil shoots coming up. 🙂
haha- froggies!
😀 sounds of spring
wonderful yousei.
You’ve done it again
Kokot,
Well, thank you kind sir. Happy you stopped by for the frog concert. 😉
That’s a very nice thought, Yousei. And written very nicely too. I wish we had an infestation, from where we live occasionally we hear only one or two frogs way down by the lake croaking. I’d rather have your chorus. 🙂
Thank you for this nice prompt. It is refreshing to read the various approaches taken.

Jim,
Thank you for your visit and kinds words. Most times, I enjoy their songs. It tickles me to hear them sing so loudly and energetically. Glad you like the prompt too. I agree that reading different takes on it are a great part participating. Thank you again for stopping by.

It’s so bad when frogs enter the house and you see this big brown or blackish jumper just jumping around, they’re my aunt’s biggest fear… Great poem!
SeraphSili,
😀 Glad you liked it. I wouldn’t want frogs in my house either. Thankfully, they’ve never made it in. Doesn’t stop the ladybugs though. From spring to winter, the sneak in in an amazing number. Thanks for visiting and commenting.
love song infestation…i like that…
brian,
Thanks. I was trying to capture that frog symphony. They are amazingly loud. When we leave our windows open at night (a few more weeks from now), they can actually keep you awake. 😯
