A Weird Zoo- a Kids Poem
One bright sunny day
I had been to the zoo
I tell you, it was weird
‘Cause it was named 'moo'
The gorillas came running
And said, 'oh please come in'
The tigers playing catch
Asked, 'how are you doing?'
The cheetah pulled his whisker
To make a fishing net;
The snakes were all worried
How they'd win the bet!
Foxes and wolves wore shoes
Red, yellow and blue;
Giraffes ate bread
Made from white glue!
Peacocks had a room
And they would use a broom
Crocodiles gathered in the pond
To rehearse a playful tune!
The bears found a lost chicken
In the big red map;
The camels filled their humps
With water from the taps!
The Elephants all met
To write a song or two
The birds gathered to see
Which among them was blue?
The rhinos set asail
In their very own boats;
The Hippos gathered silk
To make lovely white coats!
Tortoises polished their shells
And used them for mirrors
Wild frogs jumped along
And said, "Oh! Do not fear us!"
The lion came roaring in
And said, 'aren’t you coming?
Next week same time, same day
To see us all swimming!'
And just as I was leaving the zoo
The monkeys came marching by;
"You must come and dine with us
The next time you stop by!"
