Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Accustomed to Groom - LP Zoo

Always lots of grooming to do

By the snow monkeys 'twixt and 'tween,

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,

Part of the social grooming scene.

A special bond is there in each

Snow monkey that is strong enough,

Where one snow monkey cannot reach,

Another can pull out stuck stuff

That's gotten tangled in the fur.

Snow monkeys  have from birth each learned

Grooming each other, him and her,

And such favor will be returned.

Zoo visitors do often see

Lots of snow monkey grooming be.
