THE DUCK FAMILIES

In the water
along the river
floating to the sounds
of the birds in the trees
several duck families
swim through the ripples
searching for the greenery
beneath the water's surface.
They search for food
to feed themselves
and their babies
minding their own business
performing their daily routine.
The eager eyes of humans
steady on them
the many passersby watch
and observe
the duck families swim.

This sounds so beautiful. I just imagine the mother duck and her little duckies in a ponder, following along her lead, as she's teaching them how to take care of themselves. -
I loved the picture you used for this poem. This is such a lovely experience. I love to capture nature like this. The physical capture of this, and the way you wrote it to for our imagination to visualize such beautiful acts of nature is sublime.
