Ducks

POEMS FOR CHILDREN
And their wonderful world of imagination

DUCKS

Ducks are lazy
They're very slack
They never sing
They just say quack

When I watch them walk
I have to smirk
They waddle along
Like their legs wont work

The reason for this
Is simple to find
The knees on their legs
Have slipped behind

No, that can't be the reason
Because it's so clear
Every bird that I see
Has its knees at the rear

That's where birds wear them
So when they land in the trees
There is never the danger
Of bumping their knees

When I look at the feet
Of a little sparrow
Their feet are real small
And very narrow

But duck's feet keep spreading
From where they begin
They really need shoes
To keep them in

All duck's feet are wide
And very flat
No shop would ever
Sell shoes like that

So they can't buy shoes
Or even a thong
And that is the reason
They waddle along

But the ducks don't care
They don't give a hoot
And I love all ducks
'Cause I think they're cute
