Andrea Dietrich Poet Footle

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

Joe Maverick January 28, 2023 at 12:44 PM Some crazy capers, apes in capes Crepes and japes; builds to cresendo Then into lapels of cloaks it tapers.! Fun write you.'

Sara Kendrick January 25, 2023 at 2:43 PM 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
