Chapter 1: Dominic the Kangaroo at the Zoo

In an American zoo, Dominic lived,

A kangaroo with so much to give.

Hopping and munching, his daily routine,

But a yearning inside made his heart keen.

The leaves were delicious, the enclosure secure,

Yet Dominic sensed there was something more.

The thrill of adventure, the call of the wild,

Echoed in his thoughts like a playful child.

He longed to explore, to roam free and far,

To feel the breeze, beneath the twinkling stars.

The zoo was his haven, a place filled with care,

But Dominic sought stories beyond its rare.

So, as he hopped and roamed with a gleam in his eye,

Dominic knew one day, he’d bid the zoo goodbye.

For a world awaited, full of wonders unseen,

And Dominic the kangaroo would live out his dream.

Chapter 2: A Nighttime Escape

Under the moon’s gentle glow,

Dominic felt an adventurous flow.

Leaping over the fence so tall,

He ventured beyond the zoo’s safe walls.

Into the night, with curiosity stirred,

Dominic hopped, undeterred.

Through the quiet streets, he bounced and played,

Unbeknownst to those in slumber, unafraid.

The city lights shimmered with inviting glow,

Guiding Dominic where to hop and go.

Past houses and shops, he continued his quest,

Discovering a world he never knew best.

A park greeted him with open arms,

Dominic reveled in its tranquil charms.

He hopped on the grass, feeling the cool,

In the stillness of night, he found his own rule.

Chapter 3: Meeting Max

Down the city streets, Dominic did roam,

Curiosity leading him far from home.

There, in a gym, his attention was caught,

By a young athlete named Max, skillfully taught.

Max’s punches were swift, his movements so clear,

Dominic watched in awe, drawing near.

With a jump and a hop, he entered the scene,

Eager to witness what this sport could mean.

Max noticed Dominic, eyes wide with surprise,

Inviting him closer, a sparkle in his eyes.

«Come watch,» said Max, extending his hand,

As Dominic hopped over, eager to understand.

Together they stood, kangaroo and friend,

Witnessing the art of boxing, a tale to transcend.

Max explained the techniques, every move and stance,

And Dominic listened, captivated by the chance.
