What? No crumpets for the little duckies? Whatever and the hell crumpets are, I have no idea. But I'm assuming some kind of biscuits or chips, and I know ducks like bread. LOL. Yes, I'm silly. Thank for sharing.

    Thanks for the review. Crumpets are round bready things that you toast and put butter on. Quite yummy. Take care. Jen.

    I figured crumpets were something like that. I've heard about them all my life, but the few times I've been in England, I was still trying to sober up at tea time. LOL.

This is a sweet write and I see this scene in my park all the time, the mating season is over now as Autumn is on its way and it has been a bumper year as we have so many ducks and they take some feeding. A joyous write, love Dolly x

This nature 3-5-3, Follow Mama, has the proper formatting and sees the ducks swim along for a break from a day of flying, swimming, floating, and eating.

Love this! You nailed the syllable count, included an adorable picture, picked great colors, and have a great title and remarks. I wrote in this one and I like yours at least as much as mine :-)

A very sweet, succinct poem. I love the photo you chose for it!
My only critique is the colour chosen as a background - it's very jarring to my old eyes ... :D

I love watching ducks and their busy little families at our local duckpond in the botanic garden, so your poem resonated with me. I can imagine Mama duck giving instructions to her brood.

This appealing picture and charming poem are an effective combination. We live in Maine near a lake, and we often see sights like this in the spring. It is quite a gift, none-the-less.
