An Unaverage Day at the Zoo

Lonely in a zoo

there lived a sad GIRAFFE

always feeling blue

he knew not how to laugh

Life inside a zoo

trapped behind a wall

left him feeling blue

and so ABOMINABLE

He yearned for open land

his siblings and his mum

a life so very grand

forever FROLICSOME

Next door a HIPPOPOTAMUS

was feeling much the same

he always made a lot of fuss

and hated being tame

Giraffe, he said, come end it quick

our lives made void and null

this life of ours is old and sick

come eat the dark CAPSULE

Swallowed down, their souls both flew

A celebration and confetti

the giraffe began a life anew

reincarnated as a YETI

(for better or worse, I got all the words in. Ha, was fun!!!)
