Bex Is 12 - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

Bex, the puma, Happy Birthday,
October 1st and 12 years old.
An orphan cub, she made her way
Surviving in Wyoming cold,
Until some humans rescued her,
And she began her life anew
As an ambassador for sure
At home in the Lincoln Park Zoo.
A melon in a box her gift,
Which she of course did pounce upon,
And ripped apart in fashion swift,
As lots of humans did look on.

Happy Birthday and go girl Bex.
You give us all special effects.
