Notes About The Poem

Monkey Love

Monkey Love

                                             Bea and Lee swinging
                                          Retreat, beaten and bitten
                                             Monkey's left pleading
                                          Never fun without my Bea
                                      Bless monkey that doesn't cling

                                            Monkey wants snuggles
                                         Try to steal a small cuddle
                                           Slapped for his troubles
                                      They go back to holding hands
                                         Picking fleas in wonder land

It had to be a wonder if that poor monkey is going to survive. Thank you, Andrea. You get at my age and the old husband starts wondering if he is going to get his meal or so on.....

It is very amusing to watch the different personalities these animals have. A lot like people in their behavior. I enjoyed your wonderful Tanka Eve.
