It's a hot south African summers day
All the rituals have been done
6 goslings
Clapping their wings
Running on the water like only they can
It's the big day
Mother the front
Little ones at her back
The take off went well
The little ones
For the first time
Soars through the air
Then she turns around
The critical part
Of the lesson is still ahead
To get them to land
They use the dam as the big landing strip
Just like a 757
They come in with determination
To splash as little water as they can
But it's all for nothing
First landing
Duck feathers
Fountains of water
Broken egos galore
Second and third lesson follows
And amazingly by the fourth
They make the most perfect landing
You could ever wish for
Amazing creatures
They are for sure

This reminded me that some of the most entertaining and captivating things can be found in nature.
Sometimes we forget about the simplest things.
