an otter steps up to the challenge
For the Birds
:
Easter at the Zoo

spring brings new life
so a pretty brown sparrow
reminds all the animals
that now is the time to
celebrate and be joyful
Easter has arrived at the zoo
she asks for the bunny to come
no rabbit in sight so Fred
the otter collects fish
for his family
he offers food to turtles
beavers and bears
the feeling in the air
is one of newness
Fred swims and sees
the sparrow
they converse
Easter is a time to
reflect and move forward
a happy sparrow greets
visitors
the otter waits patiently
for the day to begin
chocolate eggs for humans
fish for all
cougars devour and bask
in the sunlight
the sparrow rejoices
landing on the otter's head
his eyes upward towards
his feathered friend
alive and breathing
in the spring air
