The Duck and the Kangaroo” is a humorous poem which falls in the category of ‘Nonsense Verse’. It is composed in the form of a dialogue between two animal friends. Though the episode is unusual and unreal, it is still enjoyable because it appeals to our imagination, curiosity and a sense of the music of words. We are amused to visualize a Duck perched on the tip of a Kangaroo’s tail and the Kangaroo hopping all over. The comic element of the poem is enhanced as the Duck and the Kangaroo both discuss their situation very seriously. Another noteworthy quality of the poem is its perfect craftsmanship and musicality.

The repetition of the line “Said the Duck to the Kangaroo” many times in the poem makes it a refrain. This repetition brings out the urgency of the Duck’s desire and also emphasizes her persistent nature
CHARACTERS
The Duck
The Duck is a funny creature who readily admires others, often for qualities that she herself lacks. For example, she is fascinated by the Kangaroo’s hopping abilities. Rather than feeling jealous of the Kangaroo, she admires him. She is far-sighted and has an analytical mind which she uses to solve her problems. For example, she is ready with woollen socks, cloak and cigar to tackle the problem of wet feet and cold weather.
The duck is an optimist and does not indulge in self-pity over what life had offered her. She loves adventure and wishes to travel to far off and exotic places. So, she approaches the Kangaroo and requests him to take her on a trip. She has a cheerful disposition and little joys and achievements thrill her.
The Kangaroo
The Kangaroo is a very sensitive creature who doesn’t believe in taking rash decisions. When the Duck requests him to take her on a ride, he gives the whole proposal a serious thought before making any commitment. He does not accept or reject the Duck’s request rashly. The Kangaroo is also very frank and straightforward. He does not offer any lame excuse and discusses his real worry with the Duck. He makes it clear that he is hesitant to take her along with him as her feet were so wet and cold that it could make him suffer from rheumatism. Thus, his frankness builds an honest friendship which ensures happiness to both him and the duck.
