Sareo’s poems invite us into a world of reimaginings and possibilities, drawn from a parallel cycle of life and seasons. Through anecdotes woven around families and emotions intrinsic to the culture and beliefs, she shows how to take on life with a pinch of humour. In her world, you’ll meet fairies, share heartbreaks, get nostalgic about childhood, and question one’s existence and the brevity of life. The Frog Finally Sings paints landscapes of different seasons and the myriad emotions that come with the cycle of life.
