Last Night I Dreamt - Contest

I am running along a path Laughing as i go. Knowing its you behind me I am tempted to go slow. I feel your arms around me I look with some surprise. Cos the arm i am looking at Has more hair than you can surmise A scream gathered in my throat Happiness turned to fright. I cried out your name A snarl was my reply I was being dragged into the woods Saliva running from your lips. Was i to be supper My heart did more than flip Just as you went to bite me A noise filled my brain. Panic was more than visible Then I realized was just a dream. The noise I heard was my alarm clock Ringing out the bad news. That its time to awaken, For once this wasn't the blues. Then I remembered what had caused This nightmare of last night. Richard Attenborough with his gorillas Was the reason for the  fright. Penned -  2 August 2013 - Humorous entry.

Ha ha, lol, this is quite the funny write my friend! I've had the same type of dream where I was being chased but then found out it was someone (or something) else that was chasing me! Then you find out it was a dream, hilariously you are relieved, but it stays nagging in the back of your mind all day long! What a fantastic piece Seren, Great Work!!
