There once was a duck
Who was down on his luck
Left with only a buck
And an old pick up truck
Covered in rusty messy muck
Filled with old used hockey pucks
He said, "Ya know, this kinda sucks."
Who was down on his luck
Left with only a buck
And an old pick up truck
Covered in rusty messy muck
Filled with old used hockey pucks
He said, "Ya know, this kinda sucks."
Author notes
Just something I made up on the spot to make my sister laugh. She was having a bad day and I was writing some poetry. When I tried to give her a pep talk she just kinda blew me off, so I called her a duck. Then she wanted me to tell her a story and this is what came out. She laughed for hours. I hope you like it!
Did I get you to laugh?

How about following the first 4 lines with something like....
He swapped the old Ford
for a snake oil rack
All the folks down in town
Now call him a quack!
How lucky she is to have such a loving and creative sister! Great to use your talent to lift others!
Hugs,

You're silly. To answer your question, I didn't laugh, or even smile. I think it's one of those things you have to be there for. The first two lines are fine, but the rest of the poem is so pointless that I lost interest. But I love you anyhow.
