A Row Of Ducks

An ignorant duck breeder with a moat
Put off repairing his dingy to float
And he doesn’t yet know
Getting his ducks in a row
Means more than getting his ducks in a row-boat

David, Thanks for sharing your clever wordplay! Well-said! That ignorant duck breeder does need to get HIS ducks in a row with no further delay. - Gail

The ignorant duck breeder needs to know - Mother duck gets her brood all in a row - When they’re floating down stream - It’s a picturesque scene - Beaked beauties on water happily flow….. Beryl

David, this has a very deep meaning. Love thinking about it. The way you manipulate the expression is bringing a huge smile to my face this afternoon. This is so interesting!!
