The Chap of the Zoo

There was once a chap of a zoological crew
And he got always plenty to do
One day he was prey
Nothing else more to say
So ended the fellow's life in the zoo

How horrible for this chap to loose his life by the animals he cared for. But your poem is well written, Gert. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes, Caroline.
