Ode to Monkey




Oh Monkey, how I loved you when I first saw you.
I was only 2, and Aunt Laura knew just what to do.
She sent me monkey, with wrap around arms and legs
that could velcro around my neck and my waist.



And then we moved, and I thought that I had lost you forever!
I cried and cried, and Nana and Aunt Laura tried to find another.
No other could compare! Even when they made jungle sounds...


Then I found that you were just hiding,
Waiting under my bed in Dad's sleeping bag.
Oh, how I jumped for Joy! I hope that we never part.
