Heredity


A golfer and a duck with a golfball on its head
I saw a duck the other day.
It had the feet of my Aunt Faye.
It quacked, then headed up the hill
And waddled like my Uncle Bill.

And when it turned, I must propose,
Its bill was formed like Aunt Jane's nose.
I thought, "Oh, no! It's just my luck,
Someday I'll look just like a duck!"

I sobbed to Mom about my fears,
And she said, "Honey, dry your tears.
You look like me, so walk with pride.
Those folks are all from Daddy's side."
