Duck
could
bob
could
wade
could
dive
in sky and water alike
Duck could,
and did
and not all that grounded, Duck
avoided flying even so
The main trouble
with Duck
was walking.
Webbed feet
fell awkwardly
–and Duck worried about
saving beak
should Duck trip but
pulling the plug
–Duck tried
since there’s only so many times
Duck could circle the tub
without going down the drain.
