The Rubber Duck knows no frontiers,
 it doesn't discriminate people and 
doesn't have a political connotation. 
The friendly, floating Rubber Duck 
has healing properties: it can relieve
 mondial tensions 
as well as define them. 
The rubber duck is soft,
 friendly and suitable for all ages!

message.

To get the meaning, message we have to reveal it. It is a dialogue. (see diff. btw.
