There she sits, in such pure and innocent beauty
She thinks feeding the ducks is her newest duty
Her smile lights up the dark shadows on my heart
Sad that her hearing is much worse than we thought
Nothing is more fun to her than feeding those ducks
A frown when one steals it all, she says, "Aw Shucks"
She imagines she's their mom when they come near
Quacking for attention, sounds she can hardly hear
I saw one nip at her toes, thinking it was bread
She pointed, giggled, and this is what she said,
"Bad little duck! Don't bite your Mommy's toes."
She pretended to be angry and struck a silly pose
She's the perfect combination of angel and tomboy
In her favorite overalls, she plays with her girly toys
She loves those denims, would wear them every day
when she sits on the wharf, feeding ducks on the bay
