Dancing Down To Imagination Town
Dancing down to imagination town in my dreams
My favorite elephant CuCu snatches me up and gives me a tree boost
Wait a second! I say, but he hasn’t and I land next to MightBo.
MightBo is the fiercest monkey in imagination town
He scoots way too close making me feel uncomfortably threatened.
Drop out of the tree! My muse hollers. I will catch you.
I do not, for Trixie has tricked me before.
She is a notorious trickster.
JUMP! Her assistant muses shriek at me.
I do not even yet know their names, so there is no way in the world…
A loud roar in my left ear confirms SheerChan is next to me.
So I close my eyes tightly and jump.
Landing on a mattress surrounded by baby tigers.
Who pull my ear, lick my face, and pat my head hard.
What time will you and the Mrs. be back? I yell to SheerChan.
They saunter off, ignoring me
As a baby tiger takes a bite
out of my leg.
