Cold Day At the Zoo
The ring-tailed lemurs swished their stripes;
The tortoises perambled.
Rhinoceroses munched on hay;
The seals caroused and gamboled.
A winter day with snow on tap
Was perfect for the zoo.
The humans seemed to stay away
So visitors were few.
The cobra swayed from side to side;
The dart frogs were exquisite.
A cold and dismal afternoon’s
The time I love to visit.
