Zoo Zebra

The zoo zebra had zero zest for his zombie like zoo life
But, was very zealous to zone out and count his zany stripes
Appearing to be very Zen to visitors passing by

At his zenith, he would zoom free upon the plains
Now he just zigzags around his tiny pen
Looking for zucchini snacks the zookeeper left for him

Hi Warren, This is definitely a tongue twister that rivals " Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers." I think kids would really enjoy this one. - Gail
