The swans are so beautiful, they are loved and admired by many, seeing them as they swim to and fro in their pond. <br />Their features are astounding, they are one of a kind, simply a blessing to the eyes. <br />O look at how their feathers are white and fluffy, and are filled with zest. <br />Their beaks are of perfect size, they are nothing but the best. <br />Their wings are precisely laid down on their body. When they choose to spread them open, it's really worth the while. <br />But poor duckling on the other hand has no secret admirer. <br />Duckling is always isolated because she is seen as ugly. <br />As she tries to swim along the swans all of them dash away. <br />Her feathers are not so stylish, they're as pale as can be. <br />Her beak is broad and awful, no one wants to see. <br />As she attempts to impress the crowd, she never gets any notice. <br />Always in her own little world raveled and ashamed. <br />When the beautiful swans come out to play she's never invited. <br />If she ever swim astray she's never assisted. <br />Poor ugly duckling could never seem to find her way. <br />In a pond full of creatures, she's the only one betrayed. <br />As the swans fly with great leaps to the sky, poor ugly duckling always flies low. <br />Her wings can only take her as high as her esteem goes. <br />She has lost her confidence in the swans' dominance. <br />She hasn't been accustom to royal convenience. <br />Alone near ashore you'll find the ugly duckling. <br />Searching for the worms early in the morning. <br />She's always on time and always punctual. <br />She never cheats or tries to steal from anyone. <br />She's an honest duckling! <br />The swans will do whatever it takes to get noticed. <br />They'll even still poor ducklings worms if they so insist. <br />They never say thank you and they never say good-bye. <br />Their heart is filled with ugly, ducklings heart is filled with joy. <br /> <br /><br />devon da poet<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-ugly-duckling-5/
