This morning ,
just before dawn ,
I opened my curtain and guess what I saw ?
It wasn’t a duck ,
although it waddled just the same ,
it wasn’t a rat,
It would have found a drain .
It had no tail ,
or fur for a coat ,
for then there were two ,
just ambling along ,
sharing a joke !
No hats or bags or coats or gloves,
for all the shops were shut .
I really hope they won’t be long .
