Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Anthony's Dart Frog '22 - LP Zoo


An Anthony's dart frog I be

Found in Peru and Ecuador.

There's penalty for touching me,

As poisons ooze from body pore.

On forest floors with streams nearby

Is where my kind can oft be found.

Upon leaf litter we do lie,

Hunting bugs in air and on ground.

When tadpoles hatch they're carried on

Dad's back to nearest water source,

To go through change phenomenon

To change into a frog of course.


Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo

This dart frog does play peek a boo.
