I enjoyed reading this poem. I can see and hear the little frog covered by the fog. You did well with the essence form of poetry, one of my favorite forms. Your rhyming of words is amazing.

Thanks. I hadn't thought about the frog singing till someone mentioned it. It adds a whole new dimension. I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

A nit on a louse on a hair on a frog on a knot on a log in a hole in the bottom of the sea, we sang as kids. Essence poems are an untried form for me. This one seems to catch the essence of the idea. Excellent.

You should give it a try. The essence poem is harder than it looks, but it's fun. Glad you liked this one.

Well written essence poem.. Seems difficult to me to write a good one. Good use of internal and ending rhyme. Well done. Fia

This is a really clever little thing. It left me uncertain whether I had studied the essence of fog, frog or log. However, I eventually decided that the poor visibility prevailing had left me with the inescapable conclusion, that the essence of fog had so obscured the other two, as to render their essence invisible. What great fun there can be in just twelve syllables, when you can see bugger all. Lol.

Thanks. This one was fun. Nobody's found that frog yet, including me. He's well hidden. LOL

A very well-written essence poem. The rhyme choice works well for the inner and end rhymes while still making perfect sense and tells the reader a little story.

Good

Attractively displayed with a beautiful accompanying photograph. The title is cute and aptly fitting the poem. The poem itself I found strained; too tight. A bit grade school-like. This is my dog. His name is Spot. Spot likes to run.
