The Ducks and Swans

At the children's park There is a huge pond The ducks and swans swim They all waddle by Then seek grassy shores To rest until morn Then begin their day All youngsters adore The ducks and swans They are fond of both Bring some food to eat So they don't starve The birds make their day Because they love them
