Poem: All Seats Full

All Seats Full

All seats are full—
Four baby ducks
are on board now—
no room for you.

Please let me on—
I have never
ridden with you,
give me a chance.

Didn't you board
me before? This
is my ducklings
first ride ever.

That was brown dog,
and I am white—
Will bring a bone
to ride with you!
