I Lay Myslef Down

I lay myself down on a mat tired under a cool mango tree shade watching birds up in the branches whispering to one another sweet words of love singing heart-breaking melodies. Lost in a forest of imaginations, sleep came and took me away to her beautiful home of flowers A young boy came playing and placed his doll on my chest. Up into the air I jumped- yelling and scratching my chest, thinking it was a big reptile that had kissed my chest with a cool tickling tongue
