Mealworm, mealworm, I don't want to google so I will not. I will just think you are a duck with a very funny name and go from there.

A duck that lived a life very alone because each time he said his name people went screaming.

Mealworm tried changing his name to just plain MW but it was a no go. Everyone knew him by sight. They would not even eat the same corn as he did late at night.

Lonely and bored he decided it was time to take flight. Yup, that was his newest plan.

Off he went to see what else the world had to offer. Up, up, and away he went. Flapping his wings at one hundred and ten percent off he went to start his new life.

Soon he started losing feathers from going way too fast. He didn't care. There was not a duck around that cared about him anyway.

Flying for miles and miles on end, he was thinking so much he forgot to see how far he had come. Looking below all he saw was water. In the distance, he spied a very green island. Mealworm headed there as fast as he could. His wings were about to give out!

The white sandy beach made for a soft landing pad. Mealworm, now safe, turned around and saw the loveliest female duck ever found. Forgetting he was almost bald, he swaggered his way towards her.

Tapeworm took one look at the newest suiter and sighed. What was it about men that think all they have to do is.........

She saw how bald he was. It pulled on her heartstrings as nothing had ever before. She waddled the rest of the way to him. Reaching out her wing to give him a pat on the back, Tapeworm asked him for his name.

Mealworm, being as tired as he was, didn't even think when he told her the truth. Realizing his mistake his eyes widen. He held his breath for the normal reaction.

To have flown so far, and have it all crumble in the first minutes was just too much for him to bare. He started to turn, to walk away, when he heard......laughter, but in a loving way.

Miss Tapeworm Duck reached out, grabbed Mealworm, and gave him a kiss he would never forget.
