Lying prostrate upon the grass
up above looms a soft-edged mass
brings with it a threat of showers
staring down her grey face glowers
then all at once to my surprise
appears a bright mistimed sunrise
bringing anew a hope it may
drive all the sombre clouds away
and if I’m lucky it just might
change their colour from grey to white.

Mummy duck and baby duck
were going for a walk
suddenly from up above
they heard a loud squawk
quickly dear, said mummy duck
come in and get close to me
for if that big bird sees you
he will take you home for tea
but the silly little duckling
didn’t do what his mummy said
so the greedy seagull in the sky
swooped down and carried him off instead

I’m sure you don’t have to be told
the pleasure gained from listening
enraptured as the songbird sings
though whether it be wet or cold
his notes will shine like liquid gold
from his high perch up in the trees
his joyful tunes ride on the breeze
we can be sure he does not need
a written score from which to read
his repertoire is sure to please.

Not far ahead there stood the hind
so he sank slowly to the ground
in order not to make a sound
his target had been hard to find
but the fates that day had been kind
raising his glasses to his eyes
he saw she had her fawn beside
and if they left the undergrowth
then he could surely shoot them both
because a camera never lies.

Dan the drake and Debbie duck
truly felt that at last their luck
had changed when to their delight
there was not another duck in sight
for to swim alone was such a treat
as there would be enough to eat
no jostling shoving that they must
endure in order to secure a crust
now when bread is cast upon the lakes
a leisurely paddle is all it takes.
