You Quack Me Up

38 Comments

Is love all it’s quacked up to be? You betcha.

Back off, boys!

I’m a har-har-harlequin,

Funny little duck,

If you’re look-look-looking for

A girl you’re out of luck.

 

She’s a sweet-sweet lady duck,

And she is all my own,

Best little sweetheart

I have ever known.

 

No one comes between us,

She’s mine, mine, mine,

To woo, woo, woo her,

You’d better get in line.

    The Harlequin ducks have such dramatic colors. Your poem is so fun to read, Anneli!

    I wonder where the boys bought their clothes, they are so bright and chique. It´s hard to see the lady duck with her clothes, that´s how she wants and needs it. I love the poem , going with the picture!

    A lovely poem to go with these colourful fellows. They almost look like gingerbread cookies with icing. Lol 😋

    Love love love the Harlequins – one of these years I will have to go north to see the one that keeps showing up north of Chicago….but is cold up there and I am still conditioned to south Texas weather!
