Bird Of Color - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

A golden breasted starling, I
Be a multi colored bird who
Is appealing to human eye
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
A brilliant golden breast I bear,
With a bright emerald green head.
Violet shine on throat I wear,
And metallic blue wings aspread.
Both he and she are colored so.
In Africa are found my kind.
Colorful through the skies we go,
A sight quite artfully designed.

Even our eggs are like art,
On pale green, red dots set apart.
