“in the dark green waters
of a small little pond
i found her to be unusual
as she was alone
why would a duckling
as gorgeous as she
be swimming in the sun
without a strapping he
is it her thoughfulness
that no one appreciates
is it her courage
that no one recognizes
it is her love
that no one desires
my little duck
are you destined for no lovers
will it always be simply
you and green muddy waters”
