Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Rae Turns 4 - LP Zoo

Giraffe, Rae girl, is growing up

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.

She turns four years old today - yup!

Enjoying birthday browse for two,

She invites her buddy, Finely,

To share in goodies hanging high,

Taking turns stretching neckedly

To nibble treats, this gal and guy.

Birthday girl Rae is growing fast,

Almost taller than Finely boy,

Thanks to genes, she may soon grow past

Her pal, a measure she'll enjoy.

Here's to a Happy Fourth Birthday

For a growing taller girl, Rae.
