Array ( [sid] => 103359 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Sock Monkey [time] => 2005-08-12 19:20:11 [hometext] => It's hard to believe...but I have done this!!! [bodytext] =>
I place my arms above my head,
Curl my hands in an ape-like way,
Bend and bow my legs just like an orangutan,
Then stick out my lips and jaw…for a monkey face.

Push out my feet so I walk with a funny gait,
Belly sticking out…just like a chimp,
Making the sounds a gorilla would make,
Bouncing around the room for a giggle’s sake…

Sock Monkey I am today,
The laughter bowls over in an uncontrolled way,
Do you wonder why we close the doors and lock the locks?
It’s because I do the monkey dance…in nothing but my socks!
