Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 She Alloparents - LP Zoo


A female Francois langur is

A monkey always ready to

Assist in the parenting biz

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.

Called alloparenting, each she

Cares for other langurs' offspring,

So Mom can take a break and be

Knowing an "aunt" will give caring.

Meanwhile the Dads and other guys

Don't really want to get involved

On offspring issues that arise,

Knowing the gals will get it solved.


In the he or she parent game,

A lot of humans play the same.
