Ima Ryma Poems

Katai is playing peek a boo,
As the black bear sits in his pool
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
He has that look of, "I'm so cool! "
...

I am a red wolf looking at
The people walking down the street,
Just outside of my habitat.
I like to watch and meet and greet.
...

The dwarf mongoose gang's busy at
Checking a feeder puzzle out.
A camera's in their habitat,
Watching them all scamper about.
...

The European white storks do
Some fishing in their wading pool
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
Their long beaks are a useful tool.
...

A Henkel's leaf tailed gecko is
Looking 'round for something to eat.
Finding food is serious biz
That the gecko needs to complete.
...

A brush tailed bettong mammal is
A small marsupial one that,
Nocturnal, likes to do its biz
In the dark in its habitat
...

Odie, the otter's on a slide,
Doing what he does love to do -
Going on his own river ride
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
...

Birch, all American black bear,
Is foraging for goodies that
Keepers have hidden here and there
In play things in his habitat.
...

Finely takes a romp in the rain.
The three year old giraffe feels he
Is King in wet or dry domain.
A true royal romper he does be.
...

Pygmy slow loris, Meeka, is
Using some shredded paper to
Recycle in his nesting biz
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
