Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Blue Faced Honeyeater - LP Zoo


A blue faced honeyeater who

In truth is a bug eating bird

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.

Honey eating might have occurred

Long ago in Australia far

When my kind to a campsite came

And was seen by a honey jar.

So some human gave us the name.

That human got the blue faced right,

With blue mask around the eyes,

Quite pronounced and easy to sight

When each of us reach adult size.


When the keeper brings bugs for lunch,

This is a blue face primed to munch.
