I admired your writing from the point of view of the gorilla. Your punchline was unexpected and effective, along with your rhymes. Best wishes in the contest and happy New Year- Joan

This is a cute poem for the 'Your Body' writing prompt.
Well done. Your story was clear and well told. The picture is cute too.
Good luck to you with the competition.

    Thank you for your complimentary review, Sharon. The old guy in the picture would be very flattered by your comment about him. (You do have an interesting taste in men.)
    Happy New Year!

    As a man, not so cute. As an ape, definitely.

    I'm glad to hear that, Sharon. He'd still be flattered, and your man, relieved.

It made me smile. The ageing ape in the zoo, regretting aging like me and you. Deprived of all the perks of youth. So sad, unfortunately the truth.

I like the story of the Ape/Gorilla. The Zoo is a great place to see many things that many people do not notice. It is true that once we all looked beautiful. Alas, it is also true we all get old, but with age comes wisdom and even with our wrinkles we are not ugly, just a bit older than the day before. I like the comparisons, they are so very human like. Good Job ! Good Luck and Best Wishes in the contest. Sherman541
