We watched the 6 little ducklings being pulled out of the harbor - evenly spaced out - looking a little hesitant but excited.
It started off with the last one letting go to taste freedom -one by one
letting go and keeping the same distance from each other
the third one held on a little bit longer than the others
we invisioned a tantrum on one end and a pleading on the other
"Let go!"
"Noo! I'm not ready!"
"Let go!"
"Noo!..."
The other ones tasting freedom taunting that one holding on for dear life ("Weeee, look at me!") while the others still connected together were angry and impatient to be let free ("Come on!")...until they were all set free from one another - darting here and there like kids set free in an amusement park. It was a sight! 6 little ducklings quacking along...
Us 4 had a grand time narrating this scene. A simple windy day at the beach creating mayhem amongst a smooth sail.
