Comment from rspoet
This is an excellent entry for the contest
that meets all the requirements of the Essence form
with the internal and external rhymes and six syllables lines
you even got a touch of alliteration in there
Excellent picture to match poem
The fogs doing a great job since I can't see the frog at all
Best wishes in the contest

The ghostly fog sets the backdrop for the insignificant and unseen. A bit like life I guess. You followed all the rules
Good luck.

Dear Poet,
A frog in a bog is a fun amphibian to write about. Great picture to highlight this delightful little poem.
Good luck in the contest.
Warm regards,

Very good.
You covered this style very well.
The rhymes and imagery are just fantastic.
I can easily see the frog on the log hidden by the fog.
Excellent writing!

Comment from Thal1959
I am not much for the brief poetic forms... but this one has something unique to it. The use of the word "ghostly" tends to conjure up a sense of mystery. This works well with "Mostly hides frog on log." It works because one can imagine someone being a bit spooked by the foggy scene - and their senses piqued by the croaking of an unseen frog; seemingly coming from nowhere - like a ghost.

Thanks. I know these little poems are difficult to review. The review has to be longer than the poem. I'm so glad you liked this one.

It was a pleasure.
Comment from Dr. Nad
This is an excellent write for the essence poem writing prompt. The criteria is very strict, but you managed it very well. Your picture was an excellent call, It accomplished the fact that the frog was hidden in the bog! LOL I like short poems like this that grab your attention and hold it. I think I could say you see it say it and you slay it. Thanks so much for sharing. May God bless you!

Thanks for the six! These little poems are harder than they look, but they don't get many. I'm so glad you liked it that much.
Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
A poem within poem read, allegorically fostered, visual strength of each word with internal and external rhyme poured in flow of thoughts crystallized with word visual portrayal makes it a psalm like work; I enjoyed the read, mystical fragrance in projection; truly an essence poem; I recommend it as an exemplary poem of its kind.
