That ugly duckling🐦

That ugly duckling🐦

The little ugly duckling was so very sad

And when they blamed his Father for his ugliness he felt so bad.. 

Coz when he looked into his refelection in the farmyard pool

He was shocked at what he saw,
and knew he was a fool.. 

Yet to blame his Daddy Duck was not right at all

As the little ugly duckling cried behind the farmyard wall.. 

He couldn’t understand it, his Father was pure white.. 

He didn’t resemble him at all.. he was a splendid sight !!

Well years passed by when the poor soul grew his plumes

But they wern’t yellow like the other ducks were.. his were pure white blooms..

How very strange he thought to himself, as he swam in the pond..
all alone on a shelf.. 

More and more wonderful white feathers, replaced the dowdy grey ones..and he stood out in the fine weathers..

Of course when the other ducks saw him well they were shocked with surprise.. 

There stood a beautiful Swan right before their very eyes.. 

How on earth had this happened, one duck would say to another.. 

As they saw him swimming with his Cob Father and his pretty Pen Mother.. 

And So the moral of this tale is very plain to see

 The nasty ducks were jealous of what this swan turned out to be..
