Ducky

Sitting on my bed
Being loved and valued.
Soft as sheep silk,
With white shimmering cotton.

I’ve had you for all my life.
You are not only adored by me,
But my dainty baby sister.
I’ll treasure you forever!

Thrown up and caught
With loving substantial care.
Making a playing fort.
I think you are really rare!

You came from Italy
And were a present from grandma.
You made the trip to Australia.
Italy is inside you.

You are in safe hands
You sleep in my bed.
You are now with me.
You are the keeper of my memories.
