Susan Woodrow Poet Rhyme

Dancing Duck

It sucks! 
Quacked the duck
I wanna dance the shuffle
yet all I do is waddle
When I cha-cha         cha
My beat's kinda blah-blah
Once, I did the moon-walk
It led to raucous squawks…

I’m feeling high and dry
With one thing left to try
The pals say I oughta
go waltzing on the water ~

Oh how I spin and glide
I’ve really found my stride
A smooth electric slide!

Howard Kerr April 2, 2022 at 5:11 PM Hi Susan, You have penned a rhyme poem that is both witty and whimsical. The smooth transition between lines is another endearing feature. Well done Howard Susan Woodrow April 2, 2022 at 9:43 PM Hi Howard...thank you :)

Brian Sambourne October 12, 2021 at 7:43 PM Love this whimsical piece! In my ancient past, there was a strange "Disco Duck" record with a Donald Duck like voice splashing out some lyrics. How your poem takes me back. Be well. May your pen continue to flourish. Brian Susan Woodrow October 13, 2021 at 3:01 PM Glad you liked it ..that sounds like a funny song .. thank you :)

Akkina Downing November 11, 2020 at 9:27 PM OMG, I am laughing because I’m remembering those cha cha’s on the islands... Lol! You got me chuckling and smiling in the middle of the night, my beautiful poetess island friend :) A fun poem and totally a fun read... xoxo Susan Woodrow November 12, 2020 at 10:24 AM hehe..they love to sing and dance in the islands alright and then laugh when the comedians break loose their moves esp. the older generation breakdancing. Sometimes, I just miss that but my mom used to drive me up the wall with her comedy too - as a kid, it was so embarrassing lol glad it got you laughing, my lovely fellow Micronesian :))
