Duck Hosts Morning Talk Show, Delivers Gossip Straight from the Pond

Ma brewed coffee just to hear,
“Today in gossip–goats grow a beard!”
Pa sipped slow, said, “That duck’s got sass,”
Lou clapped as feathers filled the glass.
Granny called in, spilled her tea,
“Rooster’s got a perm? Lawd help me!”
Duck wore pearls and a fancy vest,
Quacked hot takes with barnyard zest.
“Is Pig still seeing Sheep at night?”
“Does Horse use dye? His tail ain’t right.”
The preacher gasped, clutched his pearls,
As Duck exposed the church’s swirls.
City folks tuned in each dawn,
Claiming Duck’s the new Don Juan.
With glam and quack and juicy scoop,
She turned the coop into The View with poop.
