Koko the gorilla saw a kitten, <br />And was immediately smitten. <br />"Please be so kind, <br />To give me him", she signed, <br />"I'll call him All Ball, <br />I'm big and he's small." <br /> <br />This male manx, <br />Got up to all kinds of pranks, <br />Playing hide and seek, <br />A sight unique, <br />Or a merry chase, <br />With joyful grace. <br /> <br />People stared, <br />At this unlikely pair; <br />A gorilla so smart, <br />All Ball near her heart. <br />Such a lovely team, <br />This mother's dream.<br /><br />Stephen Katona<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/koko-asks-for-a-kitten/
