Today I ask little Jimmy
“Where would you like to go?”
“To the Zoo” he said excited,
“To see Lions, Monkeys, Giraffes, and you”
I said “What do you mean see me too”
“Well they have Gorilla’s there don’t they?”
“Yes but what the connection with a Gorilla and Me?”
“You’re both covered in hair from top to toe
Plus mum always says when a Gorilla appears on TV
There’s your dad again”
“Is that right” I said a smile on my face
Thinking of the night before when she asked
“Are you ever going to mend that swinging chandelier?”
