The Mer-Duck (Day 5: Twofer Tues: a Goofy or a Serious Poem)

The Mer-Duck

There once was a mer-duck

Living under the sea.

She didn't have much luck

Serving afternoon tea.

The seahorse was rude

And galloped in late.

The manatee moo-ed

And spilled tea on her plate.

The octopus burped

And got ink on the floor.
The parrot fish chirped

And kept asking for more.

The mussells were fighting.

The crabs were upset.

The eels wanted lighting.

The shark lost a bet.

The mer-Duck just sighed,

And thought Fiddle dee dee,
By the way, why the heck am I
Under the sea??
