Monkeying Around

Monkey Business

A monkey who felt rather frail,
thought it time that he learned to abseil.
But when faced with the ropes
he relinquished his hopes
and continued to swing by his tail.

  2. Let's all romp outdoors. I hope your day is, or was, as good as mine is this morning. Those monkeys know how to live.

  8. OK, I am the only one (admitting to) looking up the word abseil? OK, I'm game. I'm closer to the monkeys than others, I guess. (But now I know abseil. Show me a monkey that knows.)
