A Trip to the Zoo

Here's a cheeky little poem for all of you.

I hope you like it, I know I do!

"A Trip to the Zoo"

I went to the Zoo today,

As a means of getting away.

There are things you can learn at the zoo,

Things only the animals can teach you.

But you have to listen quite carefully,

Else you'll misconstrue, misinterpret, or miss the message completely!

The Tiger is first, in him is a quite strength,

Listen to him, listen to him at great length.

He'll teach you of charisma, courage, and passion;

And help you through your fears, in a fashion...

The Elephants come next,

Of family and kindness they know best!

They'll help you make new friends,

A smile, a nod, and knowing the how's, where's, and when's!

The Giraffe and Zebra are a pair,

They have some advice to share,

How to give and receive with an always open heart,

If you can master this, you'll never feel apart!

The koala knows about relaxation,

Take a break! Take a nap! What a great medication!

And it doesn't hurt to be cuddly, warm and cute,

You might even get a hug, shoot!

If there's one thing a Kangaroo knows,

It's how to hop hop through life, anything goes.

But remember, when it gets too hot,

pick a shady area to stay a while, 

under a tree is a great spot!

I went to the Zoo today,

as a means of getting away.

Oh! and I learned a thing or two,

The animals have a quite a lot to teach you!
