Color Me A Catch - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

I am a Mandarin duck who
Is a very colorful male
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,
With feathers in rich hued detail,
Just about ev'ry shade of brown,
Tanny and orangey, dark and light
Found on my wings and on my crown,
And sport a chest of purple bright.
Some reds, blues and greens mixed with that,
Along with stripes of white and black.
I stand out in my habitat
As one bird with a stylish knack.

My Missus dress - I won't confide,
I wanna stay on her good side.
