DUCKLINGS!
" When Donald Duck
traded his wings
for arms,
was he trading up
or trading down? "
Douglas Coupland
Here They Come
" Being born
in a duck yard
does not matter,
if only you are
hatched
from a swan's egg. "
Hans Christian Andersen
One Duckling -
" A fellow with
the inventiveness of
Albert Einstein
but with the attention span
of Daffy Duck. "
Tom Shales
Two Ducklings!
The Fearless Five
( I thought that the moment I saw them )
Bye Bye
" Four ducks on a pond,
A grass-bank beyond,
A blue sky of spring,
White clouds on the wing;
What a little thing
To remember for years
To remember with tears! "
William Allingham
=^..^=
Chestnuts roasting
on an open fire?
The smell of
chalk
in a classroom?
What fills
YOU
with nostalgia?

Thanks, thrilling three!
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering where the Fearless Five's mama duck is located? Maybe they kick them out of the nest sooner in Hawaii than Kansas.
ReplyDeleteNostalgia: Scent of plumeria blossoms dropped overnight from the trees in Hawaii; sound and freshness of the ocean waves.

When they play a old song from my childhood on the radio it brings back memories.
ReplyDeleteHappy new year.
Merle..................
Well the song, for starters (yes, I remember Guy Lombardo on New Years' Eve, and all that accompanied it). Too much nostalgia, must look forward to creating some for future in 2014. Wishing you a very happy healthy and creative New Year! (love the Fearless Five, too)
ReplyDeleteCute duckies!
ReplyDeleteThe camera cannot resist them.

cute ducks
ReplyDeleteHow very, very beautiful. Trading wings for arms was DEFINITELY a backwards step.
ReplyDeleteThe smell of some books makes me nostalgic, and some of the dishes my mother made. (Others make me thankful to have moved on.)
Beautiful images and quotes
ReplyDeleteWish you and yours a brilliant 2014!!

ReplyDeleteAlthough I used chalk on a chalk board, I believe they're all being replaced with white boards now. Time marches on. Love your ducklings, Cloudia.
