A Frog Symphony by adewpearl
    Contest Winner 

A sad tune of frogs not chosen to be princes.



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?
