a poem about a duck

[lise]

A tiny duck from TSC,
came to my house and needed me,
I fed him, bathed him, gave him food,
and warmth, and love, baby ducks are good.
He grew up big and strong and swimmy,
I named my curly tailed duck Timmy.
He was black and purple and green,
after swimming, he loved to preen.
He's getting old now, slowing down,
and he's still the best duck in my whole darn town.

Very nice.. I saw your goose one too- and then realised you have been laying them all over the forum- so I went for a hunt to read them all. My grandfather encouraged my love of poetry and one of my favourite books is the book of poetry he had published over 30 years ago.

im trying to lay one in each forum I read... it's kind of hard though! Thanks for reading, and appreciating!

verygood...i liked it...do they just pop out or do they take some time to come together?

some of them, I bet you can tell which, take longer than others. The duck one was about 2 minutes.. the goose one about 10. I have what's called Clang Associations, along with a mild form of OCD, but really helps with poetry

Anyway, glad you like 'em!
