Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Caruso Turns 25 - LP Zoo

I'm Caruso with gibbon clan,
Home here at the Lincoln Park Zoo.
Many a year I've swung the span
With the Missus and sons, now two.
Often I am sucking my thumb,
Part of my persona mystiqued,
Humans be wondering how come,
So I do it - tongue in white cheeked.
I am a singing, swinging guy.
The keepers keep me stocked with stuff
That I can grab onto and fly.
Show biz - I never get enough.

I sing Happy Birthday to me,
A swinging quarter century.
