...Some thoughts...Oh, to be a duck!

...just some thoughts...


Oh, to be a duck!

Oh, to be a duck,
and let the crud of life roll over my protected body,
leaving it – untouched!

But a duck I am not!

More the silly goose, am I,
constantly having to be dug out...
from mud that is threatening to swallow me whole.
(from the torrential rains that life puts out)

...Only to be enticed, over and over again,
by the, seemingly, cool and refreshing rain!
Not noticing until it is much too late, the garbage that
hides within the freshness!

This is from last year!

The thing about life is...the rains DO come and sometimes we may get bogged down in the mud!
...But we can always count on the sunny days coming to dry us out again! :)
