Unexpected - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

Unexpected - Lincoln Park Zoo



This lion cub's gotten used to
Going up high in the rocks that,
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,
Is not public seen habitat.
And so imagine my surprise
That way up there, as I did pass,
I saw this human shape and size
Looking back at me through the glass.
I ran down and asked Mom about
This way dif'rent phenomenon.
I figured Mom would know no doubt.
And, yes, Mom told me what went on.

Oft repairs need to be made higher up,
So humans get to climb too, yup.
