The Gorilla And His Beloved Wife Poem by nimal dunuhinga

The Gorilla And His Beloved Wife

Rating: 5.0


This man was certainly fed up with the life and roamed like a stray dog.
One day he found in the Zoo the gorilla's cage is vacant.
Since that day he lived in the cage happily.
On a sunny Sunday he saw his wife came towards the cage.
'Oh! You resemble my so loved husband and he was disappeared a long time ago.' wife said.
She witnessed the gorilla cried and she gave him her handkerchief.
On her way back home she had a facial as she knows her husband would be at home soon.

* I heard that he says; 'We the people, in order to form a more perfect union.' Good luck to the land of opportunity! And guess who comes to the dinner with a gift of real democracy.

Nimal this one is very 'tongue in cheek'. Love the image of the poor man cowering into his handherchief. I wonder if his beloved wife will really see him again? love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Very ironic and a bit cynical too. One of your many poetic moods. As always, Sandra
