THE WEATHER by Mary Matiu This is a cold day because it is going to be a storm again and it is going to be a flood too. I think it is wonderful to have a swim in the flood. Today it is heavy rain and it rains every other day. One of our ducks died because it was rambling down in the flood. The next morning we saw the duck's flipper marks on the banks and his head and body was in the ditch. I wept and wept that my duck was dead. When the flood was over I saw sticks, stones, rags and old clothes. I was glad when the storm was over, but I never noticed that the drake died too. I was just that glad and happy that I never noticed. I laughed and laughed and laughed.
