Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 My Favorite Place

In urban Chicago, northside,

Near the Great Lake Michigan shore,

Forty acres prime land supplied

With well cared for wildlife galore.

Fauna and flora to be sensed.

Animals, most endangered, are.

Plants, from the Great Plains, here condensed.

Millions visit from near and far,

With entry being free for all,

To visit ambassadors of

Conserving wild of nature's call,

Given to share with nature's love.

My favorite place I share with you,

The one and only Lincoln Park Zoo.
