Fired Up - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

As a fire bellied toad I do
Stand up and stick my belly out
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
If there are predators about,
My brightly colored belly is
A warning that I am as prey
A very nasty tasting biz,
And predators should stay away.
But through the glass I can see that
It is a keeper standing there,
So I'm safe in my habitat.
I'm belly proud and so I share.

Another toad there does seem to be,
But it is a reflection of me!
