Circles surround me
Should have listened to Kermit
Someone find Fozzy
Have you thought of having thumb-reduction surgery, John P.?

Cute Overload :D
Cute Overload :D
Circles surround me
Should have listened to Kermit
Someone find Fozzy
Have you thought of having thumb-reduction surgery, John P.?
Kermit said to me
I shall call him mini me
Now find a rainbow
Just to clear the air:
That myth about frogs and warts?
Total hogwash, peeps.
Tiniest green guy
Your thumb is so foreshortened!
Let’s roll in the grass
Oh My…It is so tiny!
yay for froggies!
Hey buddy I will
Give you some green if you look-
out for blonde piggies
If you kiss me now
A princess I will become
Do you feel lucky
Labryinth maze too small
Cannot meditate on peace
ribbit ribbit croak
Thumbs up on this one
Safer to be here than on
The nose of a Lab
Tiny little frog
seeks petite and brave princess
for kissing… and more.
Could you be the one
to turn me back to a prince?
Save my blorpy heart.
nature’s little joke:
frog is smaller than a fly,
cuter as well
Haiku personals
Can anything be more redonk?
I really think not.
Fingerprint humor.
Frog: I’m the king of the whorled!
Iceberg, right ahead.
I am the Prints You
are the tune You are the sun
I am the moon play me
Smallest CSI
gathers forensic data
from giant thumb print
teeny gray and green
is hoppy to be here
not staring at dog
Darn, Bryn beat me to the CSI joke.
Theo: Beat me to it.
I have but arches and loops
Jealous of the whorl!
[You must understand / I have Bleen Immunity / Plus I do this lots - Ed.]
This looks like my thumb
After cleaning my dog’s eye
Yet somehow cuter
Lily pad swapped for thumb
There is no food to be found
Perhaps on the toes…
Though we have cold blood
Amphibians need love too.
Give us some smooches?
A pink lilypad?
Be still, my three-chambered heart.
Green is so last year.
I like big thumbs and
I cannot lie — You other
froggies can’t deny.
Tiny Froggie
Has basso profundo voice,
Wakes the neighborhood.
Camouflage eyeballs
Another froggy Friday
I shall hop on you
I search high and low.
I’m just going in circles,
where is Miss Piggy?
Teeny tiny frog
Little itty bitty frog
Don’t ever stop being cute
Froggy went a courtin
he did ride ahh Haaaa
Froggy went a courtin
he did ride ahh Haaaa aaaaa
Froggy went a courtin
he did ride
on someones thumb to find a froggy bride.. Oh
Froggy went a courtin
he did ride ahh Haaaa
One small step for frog
one giant leap for frogkind
historic thumb hop
Giant bully frog
Sitting on the thumb of the
Colossus of Rhodes
Teeny little frog
wishes for a parachute
to jump off Mt. Thumb
First, toad on big dog.
Now it’s frog on big finger.
They get no respect.
(oh, and, Theo FTW!)
[
- Ed.]
OH, mighty floglet
sitting on the big, pink thumb
do not jump off it!
Ummm, Friday Haiku without NTMTOM? Where’s NTMTOM? Has the universe been turned upside down or is it just Teh Qte?
@Wordgirl – Mike has been busy churning out captions which most folks won’t get to see until 2011. I’ve been doing some too but mostly I’m the Database Guy this year. Or even an Ed.itor, if you will.
*looks at her own thumb*
*looks at the tiny froglet*
*looks back at thumb*… SQUEEE
@Clare — is that a LION CUB that your avatar photo is hugging??
thumb thay thumb printth may
appear if you lay a thweet
kith upon hith lipth
Makeup to hide warts….
Oops! Slipped with the eyeliner!
Hey, I like the look!
260O – love your “safer” haiku!
Theo – King of the “whorled” — love it!
catloveschanel – prints!
Alas, poor froggie
Has no other dimension.
Just in fairy tales.
Adjusts glasses and clears throat: Interestingly, screen images are one of the few things in our three-dimensional world that truly have only two dimensions, so really, froggie’s not alone!
Here he comes justa
hoppin down the street singin
ooooh, like, where am I?
@Copperbat, LOL! You win!
(Exthept I think thatth a myth. A myth.)
Not what I meant by
“You: single male, cute, green thumb”…
…but so much better!
Give me a thumb up
But don’t give me a thumb down
Or I will eat you
No ord’nary pond
Is this pink artifice; so
Where the heck am I ?
My thumb growth is new
And looks like a froggy blue
Can I nom it too ?
*ahem*
tiny, tiny frog.
tiny, tiny, tiny frog.
tiny, tiny frog.
<3
Little tiny frog
Small dwarfish amphibian
But not a toady
Concentric pond rings:
I look at them and wonder,
Why’s the water pink?
‘Tis not a long leap
For little frog blue to jump
Into great green spring
@Theo: Thanks for the info. Good to know the planet is still on its axis. (Pining sigh goes here.)
Froggie’s copper eyes
Are looking for an escape
That won’t end with ‘SPLAT!’
I like emily rachel’s minimalist approach.
Hey, zoom in on this.
A wee frog on a finger
Just ready to leap.
froggy zen garden
looks deep into my calm soul
of cuteoverload
Froggy on a thumb
Escaped the lab yesterday
What a lucky guy!
@Monterri, good job with that seasonal reference, sort of!:)
@AuntieMame: yeth?
@Mary (the first): Thank you! It’s out of season, yes, but there was enough green in the pic that I figured it just might work. Haiku’s are simple enough that I wished to experiment a little; though to incorporate an actual pattern took a little effort. BTW, it’s my fourth haiku ever!
@Mary (the first): Actually, its my -fifth-. Now…let us see…one, two, three…yes, four; and…five! I remembered how to count! 8 ]
That striped mascara
No-one draws comparison
To Amy Winehouse?
Froggie *is* cuter
than Amy, and if you kiss
you won’t get a wart.
Wicked, DaytimeDeb
Now I’m trying not to laugh
Fish in a barrel
Spectacular creature don’t ya think?
BWA HA HA HA HA AND HA!!!!
“CROP CIRCLES”?????
“Thumb reduction surgery”?????
My two new alltime favorite lines. I think you have just eclipsed Monty Python…..
and I agree with 5now8 that Emily Rachel shows the ne plus ultra of zen haiku.
(“Go, Emily Rachel!!”)
(sorry about my non-Haiku today folks; am in recuperation from a ridiculously busy 48 hrs of non-stop stiff upper lip ……not much creativity)
Signed,
The World is Too Much With me
(But CO is a verrrrreh useful antidote)
emily rachel: Ha-ha! Love that! Wow, CO has been so frogilicious lately!
In the close up shot, I like the frog’s front elbow (?) and back knee (?) !!
Look at the tiny little joints in its arms going towards its fingers / paws / claws – I dont know what you call their hands for a frog. Great Photo.
Hey, John P! You got your photo in!! Yay for submishes! Yay for adorable pinky-sized frogs! … Now if only they featured a picture with the real cutie in it – you know the CO ladies always go nuts for a qte brown-eyed boy!
hi,
Oh is he giving a pose for the photo… hmm seems like, has yet to study how to jump off from your hand being a baby frog..
*looks at thumb*
*looks at tiny froggie*
*looks back at thumb*………….uuuuuuhhhhhh…………….WHOA
so kaaaa-uuute!
this little frog as cute as can be
has landed on my thumb indeed
this precious little frog has come to ME!!!
“Jeremiah was a mini frog, he was good friend of mine.
I never understood a single word he said but I helped him jump this thumb.
Joy to the world , all the boys and girls , joy to all the fishies in the
deep blue sea , joy to you and me.”
I’m surprised this wasn’t a comment yet
