Ima Ryma Poems

Valentines Day comes once a year,
But home at the Lincoln Park Zoo,
Chimpanzees have our hearts here
Monitored for health - yes we do.
...

The Oval Office - I stopped by.
The Prez was holding paper stuff.
'Bo, meet the Constitution - guy, '
'Just can't be talked about enough.'
...

A crowned lemur - that's what I am,
An orangish fur crown on my head.
For visitors, I love to ham
At the Lincoln Park Zoo homestead.
...

The Demmies and Repubbies herd
We the People this way and that.
Ev'ry election gets absurd.
Deja Vu and We are back at
...

A Burmese python I got born
In the Florida Everglades,
Where native critters are forlorn,
Ending up as digested preyeds.
...

The Founding Fathers, yes indeed,
Believed in religious freedom.
Most of the Founders of the creed
Of Christians, but all deemed welcome
...

The inner city's where I roam
With all the other kids like me.
The streets are the only real home,
And that is where we'll always be.
...

Three camels went to meet for lunch,
A veggie diner with entrees
That the camels did like a bunch,
Salads full of different hays.
...

The U.S. used to go to war
With the prime goal of winning it
What was all of the fighting for? -
Hell - forcing the enemy to quit.
...

Teaching the 3 Rs to the kids
Is called a new name - Common Core,
Full of confusing teach hybrids,
'Sposed to improve overall score.
