Animal in Me

We penguins are deceptively intelligent and bright;
Although we’re so smart, we avoid the spotlight.
Being incredibly cute we always look good,
But intellectually we are misunderstood.
We’re loyal and true to the family we’re given,
We form habits that make us consistent and driven.
Family is the first priority for this bird,
We’re witty and meticulous but not usually heard.
We are both outgoing and shy,
And while we are birds, we’re unable to fly.
We could not think of a better animal to be,
If you took time to know us, then you, too, would see.
