Princely Duck - a real story

In springtime's realm, by a lake so fair, 
A princely duck, with a crown to wear. 
His consort, a beauty by his side, 
In love, they swam, on waters wide.

In my little lake, a royal scene, 
All ducks joined in, the waters between. 
Migrating geese and seagulls  gay, 
Daffodils dancing in the sun's warm ray.

Amidst the roses, a fragrant delight, 
Under skies of blue, love taking flight. 
The princely duck and his queen so rare, 
In their love, a tale beyond compare.

But one day came, a shadowed hour, 
A loss felt deeply, a wilted flower. 
His mate, no more by his side, 
A love once vibrant, now a fading tide.

He stood on the shore, a lonely gaze, 
Waiting for her in the sunlit maze. 
Every day, a hopeful stance, 
Yearning for her in nature's dance.

Till one day, he joined her, on heaven's shore, 
Their love eternal, forevermore. 
In the azure skies, their spirits soar, 
A princely duck's love, forevermore.
