Climb Time - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

Six weeks old at Lincoln Park Zoo,
This gorilla girl's getting care
From my two older sisters who
Have a baby sister to share.
I know that Mom is still in charge
When my sisters have hold of me.
And of course Dad, who's very large,
Is always close by, fatherly.
I guess gorillas like to climb,
Cuz up and down I often go
With my sisters some of the time,
Showing me the ropes, so I'll know.

They're on the floor and watching, yes.
Humans don't like to climb, I guess.
