Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Adjusting - LP Zoo

This lioness is one gal who

Is ready for Chicago cold

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,

All furred up in my coat of gold.

From South Carolina I came,

Where not so chilly winter is.

But I've adjusted just the same

To this Chicago winter biz.

Staying outside as oft I choose

Gives the guests the chance to connect

With me, there's warmed rocks I can use,

Providing a toasty effect.

Baby, oh yeah, it's cold outside.

I don't complain, I've got my pride.
