Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Shingleback Lizard

The shingleback lizard does be

Australian blue tongue born and bred,

And is known romantically

As a monogamous co-ed.

They live alone most of the year,

But in September reunite.

The same couple do reappear

To repeat the same mating rite.

The same husband and the same wife

Do keep in mind a common date,

And do so for all of their life,

And do find each other to mate.

On a scale of lasting endure,

A lizard love story for sure.
