When I posted, There's A Pig on My Porch, one of the other authors suggested a sequel, using this title as an example. The seed was planted.
Thank You


~ There’s A Duck At My Door ~



There’s a duck at my door and he’s quacking away,
Whatever it is, he’s got something to say!
I unlocked my door, to peek through a small crack,
When he squirmed his way in, with a grunt and a quack.


I was told to beware of this flock from the East,
Asian ganders typing great speeds with their beaks
Only Eastern ducks like these, use the internet,
To peck their way into your files, leaving you in debt.


Quickly waddling down the hall, straight to my office door,
Locked inside, I heard him logging onto the "explorer".
He pecked and pecked the keys, until he finally broke my code,.
Downloaded my identity to disk, then hit the road.



A Mandarin Mallard flashing my cash, cards tapped out to the limit.
A house on the hill, a car, a new home, a portrait of "Daffy Duck" in it.
Cruises abroad, a home by the lake, this goose was a liver, alright.
Spending a wad, and the bills! Oh My God! my life disappeared overnight.


One thing I’ve learned in this long tale of woe; If they waddle, just walk away,
Don’t allow Foreign foul, disguised with a smile on his beak, make you his prey.
A fair feathered friend, you must defend your computer before he attacks.
Don’t be a fool, don't answer the door and don’t try to peek through the quacks!
