Quackers
It's a baby duck good morning
rainy dark and cold
the babes should be
inside the barn
heater nearby
turned on.
There is heat in lots of places
but this one is hello
rabbits, rest and rain the ceiling
cracks of light
we grow.
Used to be this weather
was a sad affair
photo next to depression
when Websters was still here.
Now, of course, there's web and verse
hertz to set the vibe
YouTube tour of lots of farms
on the larger side.
I thought to make a note today
the mountains too have tides
this would be the one of mist
requires eyes inside
the one imagines seeing
freedom on the farm
with baby ducks and goats
and springs
and health for all of us.
As the great unknowing
comes to its frightful end
leaves us here and wondering
how best to grow
new friends.
Maybe start with quackers
and then just learn to bend
but never let dictators
come around again.

There's a lot to be said for the quite, simple life. Animals can be calming.
Yes. This is true. But it depends on the animal.
