Ima Ryma Poems

A lesser green broadbill, a bird,
Flying around Malaysia wild.
As nest builder - super the word,
A work of art with grasses piled
...

A joey, and my name is Jack,
And I am a red kangaroo.
A few months old, I'm kicking back
At home at the Lincoln Park Zoo.
...

This octopus has tales to tell
Of working with humans that are
Just skeletons with heads that swell
With self centeredness so bizarre.
...

As a beaver, I like to be
In a lodge that's surrounded by
Water that is just right for me.
No babbling brook for this deep guy.
...

During the day, a bat hangs out,
Hanging upside down during sleep.
And then when night time comes about,
There is no need to upward leap.
...

I'm a camel in public view,
So I want to flash a nice smile,
At home here in Lincoln Park Zoo.
Good teeth hygiene is just good style.
...

This vulture has got the good life,
Home here at the Lincoln Park Zoo.
Getting a bite to eat - no strife,
Cuz that's what the Zoo keepers do,
...

Call me Ethan. Don't call me late
For lunch at the Lincoln Park Zoo.
American bald eagle - great
Patriotic duty I do.
...

I'm an endangered rattlesnake,
An eastern massasauga call.
At the Lincoln Park Zoo I make
My hatchday with my siblings all.
...

This lion loves to shop on line.
I bought some Obsession for Men,
A cologne made by Calvin Klein,
Assured pride in the lion den.
