Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Our Flower Devour - LP Zoo

We tortoises are eager to

Share a hibiscus salad fine

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.

A lovely spread on which to dine.

The keepers put the flowers out.

Fresh from the garden the plants come

To give us tortoises no doubt

A burst of color that's yum yum.

We are not slow to get our

Selves in quick gear and munch upon

The hibiscus to devour

The flowers until all are gone.

A happy time for a tortoise

When chowing down on hibiscus.
