Propinquity ... Quack

Today's word is "propinquity" ... proh-PING-kwi-tee ... Nearness in place; proximity. Affinity of nature; similarity. (Dictionary.com)

Quack
When something is walking,
And it looks just like a duck,
One would with this propinquity,
And a bit of luck,
Decide that indeed this bird,
Is neither strange nor rare,
But exactly what it seems,
A swimming bird most fair.
