Notes About The Poem

A Toddler and Her Friends

She,
magnet;
attracting
half a dozen
of quacking, waddling ducks like scrap metal
A toddler is casting her magic spell
with mere bread crumbs;
a wondrous
sight to
see!

Love it! That duck picture sure is popular with poets. I have not seen anyone else yet who chose picture 2, like I did.
