Frog`s Eyes

on shimmering surface

with ripples passing by

reflecting many colours

from sun bright in the sky

peeping through the water

it was really a surprise

watching out for it`s meal

there`s a large pair of eyes

twas only for a moment

but I watched as it near`d

colours, green, white and blue

this amphibian appear`d

the swelling of its throat

was such an awesome sight

raising its head gave a croak

its eyes catching the light

for this dear handsome frog

who has gently touched my heart,

leaping at a winged beast

does splash down and then depart
