THE WORDY ZOO

We had the privilege of attending the 'Royal 4th Birthday' of my 'Princess Niece' last Saturday.  She requested a 'Princess Birthday Cake', and her wish was granted. :-) 

While we were there, she was playing by herself with her toys and singing and we couldn't really understand what she was saying.   One of her big sister's said, "Yeah, she does that all the time.  She makes up her own words and she sings her made-up songs in the bathtub, but she's the only one who can understand them."   (Which I thought was absolutely precious....I make up words all the time!!!)   No WONDER she and I get along so well.  ;-)   
I found this poem this morning and I think someday,
I need to take her to this zoo. ~~~ Aunt G 

TODAY I TOUCHED THE BUFFALOBSTER
Today I touched the buffalobster
and the goldfishark,
the eagleopard, ocelotter,
and the weaselark.

I fed the frogorilla

and I felt the reindeerat.

I prodded the piguana

and I scratched the alpacat.

I gazed at the gazellephant.

I gawked at the gooseal.

I caught the cockroachimpanzeebra

and the bumblebeel.

I pet the parroturtle,

and the pelicangaroo.

It's freaky, but it's fun here

at the Mutant Petting Zoo.

(This poem appears in the book 'The Tighty-Whitey Spider')
(I know what book she's getting soon from her Aunt G!!!)  :-)************************************
