Two Pumpkineers - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

Two Pumpkineers - Lincoln Park Zoo



Two beaded lizard brothers do
A carved out pumpkin peeking play
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,
Spending Halloween their own way.
Each lizard takes a pumpkin side,
And through large pumpkin holes can see
Each other - neither one can hide,
Hollow a pumpkin as can be.
Which one will be the first to dare
Slither into a pumpkin hole
To be inside the pumpkin there?
Neither does seem to want that role.

So each lizard dares the other
To be in the pumpkin brother.
