Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Aglow - LP Zoo

This snow monkey is ready to

Greet the dawning of a new day

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.

I watch as the sun makes its way

Higher upward in the blue sky,

Casting all in a golden light.

I watch myself aglow as I

Am fully cloaked in sunshine bright.

I watch the rising sun a while,

Mesmerized by its pleasant glow.

The coming new day's cause to smile.

A sunny day is good to know.

The rising sun says all is fine.

The new day makes this monkey shine.
