Isabella rocks and rolls with joy
With heartbeat from his mistress, lies
A black-white panda with bold eyes.
Symbol of the Chinese state
A treasured emblem, fragile fate,
Endangered and World Wildlife connected
By Isabella well protected.
My gem of a niece grows strong
In 11 months, she's come along
I've seen her sit, but not yet stand
No doubt she has this step in hand!
In a video she vocalised;
Her brother spoke and she replied
Agreed, it was just one short sound,
But in terms of progress, one great bound!
