New De Brazza Monkey '18 - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

A De Brazza monkey born new
November 9th twenty eighteen,
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
The baby boy comes on the scene.
Mom Rosie and Dad Myles be proud.
This is their first offspring to be,
As "oohs" and "aahs" come from the crowd,
Of visitors who come to see
A glimpse of the new cute face that
Is peering out from in Mom's fur,
And checking out the habitat,
And all those visitors for sure.

De Brazza monkeys sport a beard.
The baby's first hairs have appeared.
