A Place I Go When I Sleep

Where I Go When I Sleep When I close my eyes I travel to the land where the lion roams and roars the night away. Where monkey’s travel from limb to limb and frequently beat their chests to show the mighty spirit. A place where I ride an elephant across the land and wave At the hippos covered in mud to cool and protect their skin. Where I can shake my khaki hips to the jungle beat In my bare feet, a place where I can grunt instead of speak. A place where pink dolphins frolic and squeak. A place where even I can afford to eat. That’s where I go when I sleep.
