Gecko - Social Distancing - LP Zoo

What does look like a jelly bean
Is really a gecko egg that
Is about to crack and then seen
A new hatched in the habitat.
The hatchling breaks out of the shell,
Ready and able to now go
From the egg where it long did dwell
To a new world and say hello.
A camera's there to catch the view
Of this new little gal or guy
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
The gecko comes close to say, "Hi."

Through the Covid phenomenon
The closed Zoo works and life goes on.
