Slumberbashing with Imagery

Teddy.15

 

I’m bouncing on a fluffy pink cloud

 

with a giant Stork

 

there’s a Flamingo too

 

a Woodpecker’s pecking on my head

 

I can see a ship parked up in the distance

 

I hear someone shouting

 

“Ahoy there”

 

rabbit is dancing the tango

 

with the Chicken

 

and the Emu, Cock-a-doodle-doo ling

 

Penguin eating noodles with the chameleon

 

Mrs Crocodile has her hands over her eyes

I can see her giant teeth and her hungry smile

 

all the while

 

me? I’m still bouncing on the fluffy pink cloud

 

a Piglet is teaching a Ferret how to fly

 

and the Camel plays the banjo

 

as a monkey in a tutu floats by…

    A really trippy poem, Teddy. I love it. It reminds me of a 1960s song, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, or White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane.

      What did you say your name was? Alice, I think. 🤔

          Wow! I'd say "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" move over, you've just been eclipsed. This has such a beautiful bedtime, fairy tale feel to it, I want to curl up and dream. Precious, priceless!

          • Teddy.15

            Wow, such a gorgeous thing today dear Bella, thank you so much. 🌹

            I could see every line in my head. Tremendous imagery.

              This one slid by me yesterday...I was doing my own bit of Sbaing. Seems you dream in colour Teddy, you lucky lady...Very hallucinogenic.

                Dear Dave I had a feeling you would like this, 30+ years working with children I guess I have a a lot of material. Thank you so much. 🌹

                  THIRTY YEARS PLUS? I'm truly lost for words (doesn't happen very often) here...you have the patience of a saint!? not right in this context .... but....
