Going Ape

What Girl Apes wear for Formals Gibbons’ ribbons Favorite Fruit at Ape Buffet Great apes ate grapes A Chimp’s Seafood Diet Pete’s chimp eats shrimp Out of Control Chimpanze Spaz Chimp has limp Raised for Courage No chimps grow wimps! At the Great Apes Buffet Eight apes ate crepes When Ape Heroes for Justice Arrive Fair apes wear capes Jan. 25, 2023 for Brian Strand's No 1175 Poetry Contest

Some crazy capers, apes in capes Crepes and japes; builds to cresendo Then into lapels of cloaks it tapers.! Fun write you.'

Reads like a good contender for the contest to me. It seems you wrote something about apes or monkeys before. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page with congratulations. Sara
