Snowy Owlet - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

Snowy owlet new hatched I be,
At home in the Lincoln Park Zoo.
Mom and Dad take great care of me,
As I explore my world brand new.
Now eating solid food - that's nice,
That the Zoo keepers do provide
In the form of unthawed small mice.
Dad brings the mouse o'er to my side.
Mom makes the mouse into bite size,
And gives me lovingly each bite.
And close by lots of human eyes
Ooh and aah - I am a cute sight.

When you come visit me to seek,
Owlet you get a real good peek.
