10 Simple Rules To Children In Zoos - Animals Time

I am scared to take my kids to the zoo The bear in me knows well For they're like Lil cubs through and through They need a shell The zoo can be such a wandering vine It roots in such a way I have to bare and draw the line Here's what I say I've read news of kids being mauled and killed By rouge animals spun A few bad apples spilled and spilled Some lives were done I can't take that one-in-a-million chance My rascals to this day I have to take this mother's stance They don't fall prey 12/27/22 Writing Challenge - Zip, Zig, Zag, Zing Poetry Contest Sponsor-Constance La France 3rd

Creative way to go with this challenge. Congratulations on your winner. I have read or heard about those times, and it is scary to think about something like that happening to a child or adult. Sara.
