Ducks’ \u2013 by Des Kelly<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Duck\"<\/p>\n

While everyone knows that I am a lover of good music, most of my friends do not realize that I am also a dedicated animal & bird lover and always have been. Yes, I am, so it amazes and riles me to learn of any wanton cruelty to ANY of our fellow-creatures on this Planet.<\/span><\/p>\n

This disgusting habit of Duck-Shooting apalls me. Why it has ever been permitted ANYWHERE,<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I will never know, so here is a special VERSE I have written, which I hope will get these so-called duck hunters into a different mindset.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Duck\"<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Desmond-Kelly\"<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Desmond Kelly.. (Mr.Music)<\/span>
\n(Editor-in-Chief)..\u00a0 e’Lanka.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Duck\"<\/span><\/p>\n

WTF., ? ?, IS MY MAIN QUESTION, (WHY)<\/span><\/p>\n

DO YOU GO OUT, SHOOTING DUCK, ???<\/span><\/p>\n

YOU’RE A BAD SHOT, LIKE MOST OF YOU, ARE,<\/span><\/p>\n

SO THESE POOR DUCKS ARE\u00a0 OUT OF LUCK,<\/span><\/p>\n

A STRAY BULLET WILL THEN HIT ONE,<\/span><\/p>\n

CAUSING SO MUCH GRIEF & PAIN,<\/span><\/p>\n

IT SEEMS TO KNOW AS IT FALLS TO EARTH,<\/span><\/p>\n

IT WILL NEVER FLY AGAIN.<\/span><\/p>\n

THERE ARE RESTAURANTS A-PLENTY,<\/span><\/p>\n

WHERE THEY SERVE YOU PEKING DUCK,<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0GO EAT THERE, IF YOU’RE HUNGRY,<\/span><\/p>\n

SO THERE’S NO NEED TO BE STUCK.<\/span><\/p>\n

JUST DON’T GO OUT TO SHOOT THEM,<\/span><\/p>\n

THEY HAVE DONE NOBODY WRONG,<\/span><\/p>\n

LET THEM FLY FREE IN A CLEAR BLUE SKY,<\/span><\/p>\n

THIS IS WHERE THEY DO BELONG.<\/span><\/p>\n

WILFUL CRUELTY TO ANY ANIMAL, BIRD, FISH, OR SERPENT, SHOULD BE BANNED FOR LIFE.. D.K.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
