Ima Ryma Poems

Down a dark tunnel I do roam,
Had drank too much back at the bar.
Am in a hurry to get home,
Shortcut through tunnel and less far.
...

This kestrel likes to watch the kids
Playing around my habitat.
Such busy sights for my eyelids,
But soundproof glass - I'm glad for that.
...

Leonard Nimoy, do rest in peace.
Generations watched your Star Trek.
Mr. Spock's role will never cease.
Pointed ears pay off - what the heck!
...

I, the Washington Monument,
Was built in Washington, D.C.
George made a name, that's evident,
So thanks to him, I came to be.
...

Madagascar hissing cockroach,
See us at the Lincoln Park Zoo,
African Journey we encroach,
In mass behind glass just for you.
...

'Jack the Ripper' - the question who?
Inquiring minds still want to know.
And so the media still do
More sequels to this crime biz show.
...

A slow loris primate I be
From Asia where I do roam slow,
So humans easily grab me
For human weirdness - doncha know!
...

Plastic surgery - had so much,
I'm mistaken for Tupperware.
But my Doc has that magic touch.
I pick my nose when I am there.
...

A Bali mynah bird I be.
The island of Bali be where
My mynah line has ancestry.
But we be birds endangered there.
...

When human children learn to talk,
So many questions children ask.
One that always comes as a shock,
'Where did I come from? ' Dread the task
