Calm and Serene

We like to visit a pond nearby, a good place to be, 
Egret, Heron along with the ducks and geese, to see.

One day we saw a smiling duck with dimples,
He looked so comfy, in the center of his ripples.

All around him, small bubbles rose,
It was apparent what went on, by a nose.

Farting to create ripples is known as fripples, 
Best not look it up, you’ll get into a crimple.

Other ducks and animals riding the waves, who became disturbed,
On hearing of what the smiling duck did, were now perturbed. 

Flying feathers all about, everyone was leaving the scene,
So much for our pond, that was once calm and serene.
