Gorilla Poems - Poems about Gorilla

Silverback
Silverback led his gorilla by the wrist out into the fog and missed, lost his heart and then his way, sadly, he was heard to say, "Don't get me wrong, I'm no King Kong, it's plain to see, so, don't make a monkey out of me."

Premium Member Observations of a Gorilla
I did not know about the world, I grew up on a farm Into the city I was hurled, it was cause for alarm I found my solace and retreat, with tenants of the zoo The animals that I would meet, were friendly to me too His gentle eyes of wisdom bright, a creature to behold This proud gorilla...

I am Gorilla, and this my domain You humans return to ensnare me again Mankind with his bullets has not caught me yet Hey Fella, that there is one hell of a net! Now in the zoo with not much to do The people pass by in an orderly queue They all seem impressed when I beat my chest They’re easily pleased...

Premium Member A Song the Gorilla Sang To Me
Gorilla My Dreams sang me a moody torch song with these lyrics: Why does your soul feel like a hole Wherein a mole used to hide Why does your heart fall all apart It will not start deep inside. Why won't somebody make my hot toddy Oh lawdy lawdy, oh no Why is it scary here on the ferry With Curley Larry and...

I met a gorilla on the bus today. He was genuinely interested in what I had to say. We talked weather, politics and life. I spoke of my children, he of his wife. Our bus ride lasted less than a mile. But when we parted I sported a smile. What a pleasure meeting a new friend brings. That two can enjoy simple...
