the goose and the swan

the goose and the swan
walk slowly by a lake,
the goose think of his son,
the swan thinks of his cake.
.
the day turns dark,
the goose breaks his ankle,
the swan contacts the duck,
and they decide to stay at Motel Frankle.
.
sleeping on a haystack,
The goose has a heart attack,
the swan dreams of white clouds,
the duck goes underwater,
swimming off his fat from McDonalds.
