Denizens

Teensy frogs, as green as can be
live within my banana tree

tiny black orbs and yellow feet
their serenade loud to be so wee

Three pair of dark and sleepy eyes
gave me but a small surprise

as I'd noted their amphibious prise
upon the tropical leaf’s long rise

Camera in hand, flash on bright
I must have seemed alien to their sight

Now images forever captured in light
These little hoppers bring a sweet delight!
