Wearin' Of The Green - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

I am Luigi, a sloth who
Stays in one spot a lot of time
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,
Allowing algae, colored lime,
To sometimes grow within my fur.
When I am in midst of my groom,
I'll often use my toes for sure,
And grab this algae to consume.
While on me, algae can be seen,
And folks are often surprised that
I have the look of tinge of green,
While resting in my habitat.

Most algae on me I display
To celebrate St. Patrick's Day.
