  Overall, this poem is lively, imaginative, and engages the readers through sophisticated linguistics and endearing structure.
  
  Positive Feedback:
  1. This poem has a lot of charm! I love that the ribbit-ribbit sound gets louder and more intense as the poem progresses. The illustration of this sound really immerses the reader into the story and adds a comical touch.
  2. Your rhythm and pacing are excellent and really support the playful theme of the poem. It flows smoothly and has a catchy rhythm, almost like a song.
  3. The speaker's voice is clear and friendly, and the story is very original. It is outright impressive and fun to see a tale so unique and amusing narrated in such an appealing way.
  4. I also commend the element of surprise in your artistry; it’s not every day that you hear about a woman with frogs in her ears. You have managed to creatively bring this image to life which also shows your out-of-the-box thinking.
  
  Improvement Suggestions:
  1. It might be good to add a little more description about the impact these frogs had on the woman's life. Does she befriend them? Does she try to get them out? These additions could add more depth to the poem.
  2. The rhyming pattern is not very consistent – you could potentially smooth it out in the future to offer a more rhythmic flow throughout the poem.
  3. While engaging, the poem may seem a bit lengthy to some readers if improved could help in better audience engagement.
  4. It would be also interesting if you considered adding some personification to the frogs, just to create a deeper sense of characterization.
  
  Keep up with this fantastic and whimsical style of writing. I'm excited to read other poems by you! more »

  So many times I began a conversation with someone and as I’m talking to them I notice they are not listening to me at all. I feel like I’m talking to my self. I test to see if they hear me by not finishing a sentence. I stop talking . They act as if they have too much going on in ther head. Perhaps a frog in each ear. They didn’t hear a word that I said yet they would nod their head. more »
