The Inkwell

#Grabaprize #hookaduck #fair #pier

The silver hook dangled

over a yellow duck sea

manoeuvres required

for getting a hand

on that furry teddy bear

needs a little skill

slowly the hook dropped

till over the prize it came

with a careful clasp

Ascending towards

the escape hatch and success

happy days ahead ?

cruellest of fates

leads to mr bear heading for

unforeseen tumble

smiles all round though

as a bear is returned
