The Sweetest of Slumberbash

 

 

A swollen river of chocolate right below my feet  

and “la primavera” of Mozart

Played by an orchestra of bumble bees

 

 a purple hedgehog singing

“She loves you yeh, yeh, yeh”

to a swan who was singing back

“baby don’t you dare”  

 

crocodile sitting by the marshmallow creek

wearing my sun hat, as I turn to look closer

he smiles at me and winks

 

a flying saucer, flown by an alien

waving down at me

naughty granny jumping

off the caramel springboard

 into a bright confetti sea

 

a giraffe painting an up-side-down rainbow

for all to admire

there’s a bright blue frog

balancing on a tight rope wire

 

and the town clock that’s sits

upon the oldest living tree

tic-tocking backwards, oh yes

and me?

I’m floating upon the old woman’s shoe

                         drifting

                                                                          deeper and deeper

 

into this beautiful dream.
