The Chicken Or the Duck

Is it not odd that a duck
   does not know how to cluck

Ducks know how to quack
   but a cluck they do lack

A hen's a chicken, not a duck
   And can she ever cluck...

Do you know who came first
   the chicken or the duck
     
    I wish you good luck!

Ty for the morning cup of chuckle, Mr. G. Believe me, a sweet dash of heh heh goes really well w/a cup of tea. And thanks again for the brief respite from the serious apathy. A funny poem is heart healthy. Cool write tho. Love and joy always.

Alphabetically, the chicken comes first but have you wondered what things would be like if they were a dicken and a chuck?
