Just ducky!

When God had finished the stars and whirl of coloured suns
He turned His mind from big things to fashion little ones…

And as for the duck, 1 think God must have smiled a bit
Seeing those bright eyes blink on the day He fashioned it.

FW Harvey

Four ducks on a pond,
A grass-bank beyond,
A blue sky of spring,
White clouds on the wing;
What a little thing
To remember for years-

William Allingham
