Antiphony:
Bounteous croaking cacophony -
diluvial effusion -
full-throated.
Gambolling, hopping, impertinent jumpers.
Keening lugubriously,
making noises of pain -
quadrophonic ribbets.
Such total ululation -
vociferous wailing.
X-traordinary yearning zydeco.

Author Notes
some early reviewers have asked about zydeco - it is a type of Cajun music from the bayou - though usually fast-paced, it does include blues songs, and this poem is about the frogs singing a sad song - also, it is from the bayou, and what better place for frogs?
