On Christmas Eve, I visited Bristol Zoo and gardens with my daughter.
It was wonderful to see all the many different animals and we especially enjoyed seeing the Red Panda out in their enclosure. I was inspired to write some poetry and ended up writing these poems in three different styles.
Red Panda
Cute little fiery red creature
that looks like a miniature bear
who climbs up high in the trees
brushy tail for warmth in their lair
named well before todays Panda
have false thumbs to help climb trees
vegetarian carnivals - it`s weird
only eating bamboo, ants and bees
their red fur with white patches
helps to blend with lichen and moss
as they enjoy life high in the fir trees
showing the world who`s the boss
originally from temperate forests
most active late evenings and night
twittering calls as the play and hunt
Red Pandas are a beautiful sight!

Red Panda
Red furred mammal
Endangered but so loved
Demandingly territorial
Panda in name only
Active evenings and nights
Noted for being a solitary bear
Display great ability to climb
Always a beauty to behold!

Red Pandas
these creatures of majestic beauty
all dressed in thick red fiery fur
cute faces and bushy tails
climbing high in the trees
twittering calls made
cosy warm nests
marvelous
