Lizzy is so very cool,
with her fiendish, evil grin.
Beautiful in her own way,
I love the texture of the skin.
You'll see her where it's very warm,
cold-blooded means she likes the heat.
And when she's hungry, you should know,
fruits and greens she likes to eat.
When evading the hungry hawk,
there is one more bizarre detail.
Lizzy still can get away,
if she sheds her writhing tail.

I thought Lizzy was a carnivore?

Most are, eating insects and such. However when caring for a iguana, many people suggest feeding only green leafy vegetables and some fruits.
DeleteWe don't see anything like Lizzie in the UK.
ReplyDeleteI remember visiting Mexico and seeing the animal coati. I had never seen it before. It's fun to travel the world and 'discover' new animals.
DeleteAnd, the significance of the first two capitalized letters? Are you implying she stands upright as she runs? (godzilla, like?)
ReplyDeleteThat would be a great story. No, just capitalizing the poem title.
