Goodbye Number Four
Saw family of four today
only three babies were with
mama duck, so something
unknown befell number four.
Living in the wild you
never know how long you
will be around, as I watch
them swim away, my desire,
is they didn't suffer very much,
here at Lowell Ponds, anything
could have happened, that is
part of wild life.
So I say goodbye number four,
to a short life,you had
on this pond, you swam so
freely, you gave it your all.
