Anybody! We encourage students and teachers to get their writing classes involved on Save The Frogs Day. We encourage amateur and professional poets to take part as well. And the more countries represented the better!
How do I write a Frog Poem?
We welcome any poems that mention frogs, salamanders, newts, toads, caecilians, amphibians, savethefrogs.com, and/or SAVE THE FROGS!
Here are some ideas for your frog poems:
- Find out about a particular kind of frog and describe the world from that frog’s point of view.
- What if you found the last frogs alive on the planet … What would you do? How would you feel?
- Write a poem that makes the reader understand the importance of saving frogs, or one that makes them realize the danger frogs are in.
- Write a poem about any of the threats to frogs.
- Write a poem about how ridiculously cool frogs are!
- Imagine all kinds of brave, extravagant and daring ways in which you could save the frogs.
As past years' contests have proven that amazing poetry comes from people of all ages, there will be no special categories
