Tanka: Mountain Frog

close up shot of ancient rocks on the mountain, clear water running down
a golden striped frog sitting between stones, grass and wildflowers

side by side
letting each other be
the frog and I
his eyes a lake of gold
high up in the mountains

  6. I can’t remember the last time I saw a frog. We used to see them all the time when we were kids. He’s a lovely colour 💚
    Hope you’re having a great day 🤗🐸xxx

    1. Thank you so much for your kind words dear Cathy 🙂💜 We’ve seen frogs in the rock pools and tiny streams and waterfalls in the mountains of the West and it’s the first time I’ve seen them since I was a child. I was sitting on a rock to take some photographs of the landscape below when he sat down beside me. Hope you’re having a great day too and much love to you and Finn from all of us here 🤗💖🐕 xxx
