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.
