Quack and Waddle that is how we safely cross the street

Sidewalks and roads morning, noon, and night
Hectic bustle of today’s life
From young tiny feet 
To the old with silver in their hair
The noise of cars, trucks, and buses
Along with the machines that are improving 
The roads, bridges, and sidewalks that are utilized daily
A symphony of chaos trying to distract our attention
Our attention we need to stay on course
Ensuring are safety is never out of reach 
To reach out destination in one peace and safe.
With a quack, quack, quack, so our journey begins 
How to safely cross the street. We quack, quack, quack with our partners
Our hand in hand while we look up and down the street we quack, quack, quack. 
The next step still hand in hand is to cross the street with care. 
Crossing the street we say waddle, waddle, waddle until we reach our 
Goal of the other side of the street. Until safely reached
We repeat waddle, waddle, waddle until safely all reached.
