"Straight from the duck bill." I never thought of it that way. Thank you.
You taught me how to finally spell a certain word to keep it active on PH. Just pretend to be a duck. Brilliant
Frankly I thought that my three latest poems would be deactivated by PH. (My Flamin' Freeda Flout, Keep Eyes At Rest, Mouth Shut and Pants On and this one.) I am surprised they weren't.
