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.

What a wonderful dreamscape you have painted here. Full of vibrant imagery and lsd type of experiences. Not that I have ever tried lol, but I got a real feel here of the Beatles and Sargeant Pepper. I enjoyed the bright, sunny aspect. Not a hint of darkness or violence . What sweet dreams you have Teddy. A wonderful uplifting read for a Monday morning. Thank you so much my fellow Brit ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ ๐น

You're welcome Teddy
So full of child imges that I was taken back to the days of my infant grandchildren, my own small children, and my childhood. Filled with nursery rhymes and Disney I feel rejuvinated.
Did I ever tell you I have worked with young children all my life? It's easy to write like this but not so easy to write my dark stuff. So thank you so very much dearest sorrenbarret for all your beautiful reviews always. ๐น
I love this. What a beautiful scene you create sweet Teddy.
Thank you dearest Thomas always a pleasure to see you on my page dearest Poet. ๐น
I too was brought back to the Beatles and Sgt Pepper in Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds. Ahh the days of our youth, must they be so brief? ๐ค
Wow such a compliment thank you dearest A.P anything that reminds you of the beetles from me is a true honour. ๐น
beetles fly, Beatles sing. There's a difference. ๐ผ๐ถ๐ต๐ ๐ต๐ถ๐ต
