Exceptional Toys hold so many memories Rubber Duckie by Barry Penfold      Newbie Flash Fiction Contest Winner

The bath toys were corralled in a blue plastic box. Brian had paid scant attention to them for years. That was until today. A yellow rubber duckie, looking cool with dark sunglasses, compelled him to lean over and squeeze. A sharp squeak greeted him and he surprised himself as he began singing the words "Rubber duckie you`re the one. You make bath times lots of fun. Rubber duckie I am awfully fond of you." He smiled but at the same time felt the tears welling in his eyes. He cried, "Rest in Peace, my darling daughter, you`re still the one."
