Waddling in the Rain

Looking out my window Gray clouds hung in the sky Rain came crashing down That can turn a smile into a frown. Out of the blue A duck came into view Strutting about the parking lot Enjoying a lovely afternoon stroll Amidst the thunderous storm. He didn't seem to mind Getting drenched from beak to feet To him, he was enjoying a nice shower Courtesy of Mother Nature herself. Ruffling his feathers He looked fluffy, like a lamb Feeling fresh as a daisy He gave a happy little honk Thanking nature for a refreshing bath. He shuffled away Going about his day Not a care in the world As he walked down the street. A strange but pleasant sight Granting a lesson in that moment How one can make a rainbow On such a monochrome day.
