Will Visits the Zoo

William and I went to visit the zoo. A big sprawling zoo exceedingly grand We saw lions and tigers, some red kangaroo, Cute mini monkeys from a far distant land, And an ostrich who hid his head in the sand. Past the wild horses on flat open ground A wide green pasture beneath the blue skies The wonders of wonders was there to be found A huge grey elephant, enormous in size. The poor child could hardly believe his own eyes The butterfly farm, a wonderful sight Like watching a dream of magic unfold Thousands of beauties in motion and flight Weaving with colours exceedingly bold. A memory to keep for when I grow old.
