This cinquain, Frog Taxi, has the right set up and brings some of us back to our days in the arcade trying to get the Frogger across the highway and then th3 river. Nice.

Beautiful entry for the Cinquain Poetry writing prompt contest. You followed the rules of the contest well. Beautiful presentation and imagery.

Wow, I am at awe of the volunteers caring so much for the frogs.

Good luck in the contest.

I wonder where these types of animals hibernate during winter. Do you think they are alive in this freezing conditions? I am told they hibernate under the freezing water. Mom always told me not to touch frogs as they produce warts. Good advice.

Interesting information. Great picture as the subject frog appears to be patiently waiting for his taxi, he definitely is not in NY. Your lines flow well and this is a good read. Thank for sharing.

    Thanks for your review. From what I know about NY I'm guessing he'd be waiting a while, or telling them to hop to it :)

    Thanks for your review. I'd never heard of this until I was "topic hunting" through the Net. It struck a chord with me.

    You are welcome. I didn't know one could "topic hunt" on the net! I'll have to try that.

The frogs itch a ride on a taxi? How quaint is that, nature finds a way to ensure their species survive and make use of the local transport it seems, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

Congratulations for a five lines as well a 2-4-6-8-2 syllables compliant Cinquain Poetry Writing Prompt Entry.

The work highlights a dark night, when frogs taxi across the streets in a breeding spree.

The work earns its texture through its effective use of metaphor and a strict compliance with the Cinquain structure.

Excellent work. Bravo.
