Ima Ryma Poems

The African penguins do do
A coming together in song
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
In awesome sounds they sing along,
...

Crown shyness is a tree term that
Refers to social distancing.
Growing close in a habitat,
Trees avoid the top touching thing.
...

A laughing kookaburra, I
Do make a raucous sound I do,
With tendency to amplify
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
...

Most zebras have stripes black and white,
But ev'ry now and then there be
A zebra that does not look right -
Is altered genetically.
...

We penguins oft do think, we do,
That humans do a funny walk
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
Of course amongst us we do talk.
...

Young rhino, Romeo, does need
From time to time to have blood drawn
For checking out his health indeed,
And so some training has gone on.
...

Just once in my watery life,
I came in contact with life form,
Humans - will known to cause such strife.
Avoiding humans is the norm.
...

In King Tut's tomb were near and dear
Remains discovered next to King.
Parents, wives and daughters all here,
To make his death a fam'ly thing.
...

A cotton-top tamarin, I
Do swing at the Lincoln Park Zoo,
In monkey shines - don't ask me why.
I just do cute, that's all I do.
...

In Chicago, I am O'Hare,
The international airport.
I am reached by the world by air.
Biggest, busiest - brags I court.
