Daver Austin Poet Free verse

Ducks On a Pond

DUCKS ON A POND

Three ducks on a pond
With tall, tall buildings , hotels surround
This charming oasis
Quite downtown
Lures the soul weary
Something about the zigzag
In the sky blue water
So smooth
So tension unaware
And from time to time one will bob, duck
Bob then shake
Then swim quickly about
In the clear, clear water
And the seekers will point,
Laugh
Shout!
