Ima Ryma Poems

Alex Karras, as a young kid
Did join the high school football team,
So older brother, Teddy, did
Not further smack his self esteem,
...

Ellsworth Soares, a U.S. G.I.
Came back home after World War II,
But not a college kind of guy,
The G.I. Bill he did not do.
...

Amelia Earhart update,
New disappearance news appears
On the mystery of her fate,
Flying back 75 years.
...

Arctic terns try to avoid man,
Migrating yearly pole to pole,
Flying on high o'er oceans span,
Maintaining air traffic control.
...

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.
...

I am a hump winged grig - a guy,
A cricket like insect who sings
For sex with gal grigs. First time I
Have two sets of 'get the gal' wings.
...

A tawny frogmouth bird I be.
Lincoln Park Zoo is where I perch.
Australia, originally,
My kind call home - I did research.
...

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.
...
