Emile Pinet Poet Alexandrine

Notes About The Poem

Zoo

Rare animals to see;
that's the bait that draws me.

The zoo is amazing;
I spend hours just gazing.

And my heart skips a beat;
as oohs and aahs compete.

But a cage isn't home;
for creatures born to roam.

Jan Allison May 14, 2023 at 2:31 PM Great message Emile but sadly with so many animals being killed by man, its the only place some animals can survive. congrats on your win:-) hugs Jan xx Emile Pinet May 14, 2023 at 4:26 PM Thanks, Jan, for a species to survive, it needs to be in its natural environment; otherwise, it is merely being kept alive for our benefit, not theirs. As always, I appreciate your comments, my friend, Emile.

Darlene De Beaulieu May 13, 2023 at 11:57 AM Hello Emile, Yes I agree the animals should not be in cages. They should have and an area to roam around on the zoo land.
