MAGIC IN THE CITY

I COULD SEE SHE WANTED TO CROSS THE ROAD,

IT WASN'T RUSH HOUR, I WASN'T IN A HURRY,

SO I GLANCED IN MY MIRROR AND SLOWED TO A STOP.

SHE CROSSED SLOWLY AND DELIBERATELY,

THEN HE DECIDED TO FOLOW HER,

I WAITED ON, ANOTHER GLANCE IN MY REAR MIRROR

AND A SMILE FROM THE DRIVER BEHIND REVEALED

SHE'D ALSO ENJOYED THE TRAFFIC INTERRUPTION

AS THE TWO DUCKS CROSSED THE ROAD!
