Nature's Wonder
A beauty of nature in every way
Near serene blue water and ponds
A vision that swims most everyday
With a quack sound he responds.
He primps and cleans
Parting each feather in between
A miracle of nature you will agree
His colors are amazing a sight to see
He is a blaze of orange, green and red
With bold stripes of black and white
Scattered about his small soft head
They are a natural to this land
Somewhere in China and around Japan
Europe was introduced in years gone by
So they are now abundantly free to fly
Their nest is high in the trees
When they hatch they all fall free
A rainbow of colors much more than three
His wings like sails, held high above
A sight to see I will never tire of
I stood in awe and was amazed
Such a graceful duck in many ways
The Mandarin Duck is surely a prize
God truly is an artist but that’s no surprise
