Fellow Poet

 
ATTN:  Poet "Debbie"--  
                                                                     
I am happy to review your poetry book if you send information.  Do you maybe have a link of some sort?
                                                                                       
The concept sounds interesting.

Poetry in Motion

 
       Squirrel monkeys move with energy (and seeming joy) through life.  Full-grown monkeys are small enough; the babies are really tiny.  These creatures are my favorite zoo animal, capturing my attention even more than the big, grand and striking animals.  (Generally, I like most zoo exhibits.)  
       These photos are from the Wildlife World Zoo in Phoenix, AZ and the Frank Buck Zoo in Gainesville, TX.  Both of these are private zoos. These seem to more commonly house squirrel monkeys in modern times; it seems the bigger, public zoos often don't bother with these charming little creatures, which are native to the tropical forests of Cental and South America.
       What must things have been like, interacting with monkeys in the Garden of Eden?  What will our interactions with animals be like in heaven?
