Eye Of Skink - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

I am a skink, a lizard who
Does have quite excellent eyesight
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
Pupils dilate to dark and light,
And I can see colors also.
The keepers who give my care
Individually I know
Who is who when at each I stare.
Contrary to what some folks think,
I do have moving eyelids that
Let me give a blink or a wink,
As I watch from my habitat.

You may not have gotten the word,
'Twixt and 'tween my two eyes - a third!
