Mr. Green Broadbill - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

A male green broadbill bird, I do
Sport a vibrant, bright plumage green
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,
Wowing the gals who eye my sheen.
And also as my name implies
I've got a bill that's broad so that
I'm able, given my small size,
To eat food in my habitat
In bigger mouthfuls so I won't
Stay in any one place too long.
I like to eat fast so I don't
Lose wooing time with my sweet song.

Ever alert instinctively
To search for my Miss Right to be.
