St. Patrick’s Day Party – in brief verse

March 17, 2014 by Lisa

There were seven chimps of Cle Elum
Who were ready for breakfasts of melon.
The party was set
In the greenhouse the fete.
At foraging they were excelling!

And, yes, I apologize in advance for my less then ideal rhymes, it’s very difficult to come up with words that rhyme with Cle Elum. Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all!!

Annie forages for nuts in a sock:

Foxie forages for strawberries on the wooden platform:

Jamie takes up two chairs while she forages for treats:

Negra forages for chow with the bamboo behind her:

    Every time there is a party, and you guys and chimps party a lot, it amazes me on how creative you are with the decorations. The chimps certainly enjoy it and I enjoy watching them enjoy their parties. Thank you.

    I wish I were a chimp at the Cle Elum sanctuary,
    Where the parties are foraging fun and quite merry!
    Corn beef and cabbage will not make chimps hairy,
    The 7 chimps like their peaches, yams and blueberries,
    But do they, I ask you, ever get Bing cherries?

    Happy St. Pat’s Day

    They say 7 is a lucky number. And these 7 chimps, at this stage in their lives, are very lucky indeed to be in your care at CSNW. Happy, lucky St. Paddy’s day to you all!

    I can almost see Jamie chasing the snakes out of Cle Elum.
