Excellent entry for the --Rain Frog writing prompt contest.

I like to read about frogs but I don't like them in real life....especially the big ones. Good luck.


I appreciate your writing talent. Well done!

Thanks, Gypsy, for your kind review, all the stars, and comments-- especially that you appreciate my writing talent. Coming from you, that means a lot.

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy

Excellent

I love the idea of this rich frog bathing in his lovely wet surrounds and regularly counting his money. Or does his 'bank' refer to a grassy one by the river? Excellent, thought-provoking verse! Good luck! Debbie

A very miserly frog I must say or maybe it secretly enjoyed getting wet in the rain. Very well written. I love the title of your piece. I wish you the very best in the contest. With kind regards

Good

This was great! I loved how the frog was a miser. Or maybe he was just a smart frog as he knew the rain wouldn't hurt him. I like how you keep up with the money idea by using buy a spot. Good luck!

-I like the artwork and presentation.
-A good job with the poem.
-Effective imagery and rhyme.
-I like your premise of a rich frog.
-It works well as a symbol, too.
-The last two lines are also good
showing that the frog was not
trying to make an impression on anyone.
-He quietly let his bank account grow.
-A good entry; good luck!!

Thanks for your detailed review and all the stars. I laughed when I read that you felt the rich frog wasn't trying to impress anyone.

Well, we all have to save our pennies where we can, and if you're an amphibian, what's a little moisture between friends? This is very cute! I like your choice of rhymes and the accompanying image. Good luck in the contest.

Thanks, Navada, for your review, all the stars, and comments. I'm not an accomplished poet, so I have to stick to these short and simple things. But I'm glad to hear you liked the rhyming.

Comment from T.A. Walk

Good

A lot of us can understand this frogs' position on watching his account! This is simple and well done, although I think I would replace your hyphens to a comma. To each their own though, and otherwise great job!!

Thanks, Alex, for the review and compliments.
I had to have that image because it was unusual. I'm happy that you enjoyed it--short as it was.

All frogs watch their bank accounts-they are rich!-They all have greenbacks! Even when they are in the water, they often go to the banks! They never play the stock market, though-they don't want to get bogged down in that!
