The keeper of the animals
Leisurely walked the halls
She came to the gymnasium
Where monkeys climbed the walls
Coming to the chem lab
Was quite a fearful sight
The lioness paced the room
And roared with all her might
Passing by a room
Where alligators laughed
Zoo keeper overheard someone
Trying to teach math
The room Ms. Peacock kept
From which came no sound or word
English rules were being set
And written by all the herd
In another room a seal
Kept his audience intense
To see if he could offer
A really good defense
Keeper strolled back to her desk
Pleased with what she'd seen
Enthusiastic students
And teachers working as a team.
