Coquis are tiny Caribbean frogs. It is believed that they came to be in Hawaii by latching onto a ship. They like to eat herbivorous insects and abound in lush areas, especially rain forests. Chirping instead of croaking and usually only in the evening, they sound like a gazillion birds twittering.
The Coquis were nerve-wracking when they first appeared in my yard. But like Henry Higgins who has become accustomed to Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady, I have learned to live with the Coquis and even appreciate them. I’ve found them talking to me constantly. Their nightly symphony provides constant reminders to…
sing
let it all go
tell it to the universe
jump
laugh
hear the harmony in cacophony
recognize that what you have is what you see in others
find peace!
