Slumberbashing In Imagery Poem by Shirley Harrison

Slumberbashing In Imagery

I'm bouncing on a fluffy pink cloud

with a giant Stork

there's a Flamingo too

a Woodpecker's pecking on my head

I can see a ship parked up in the distance

I hear someone shouting

'Ahoy there'

Rabbit is dancing the tango

with the Chicken

and the Emu, Cock-a-doodle-doo ling

Penguin eating noodles with the Chameleon

Mrs Crocodile has her hands over her eyes

But I can see her giant teeth and her very hungry smile

all the while me?
Well, I'm still bouncing on the fluffy pink cloud

a Piglet is teaching a Ferret how to fly

and the Camel plays the banjo

as a Monkey in a tutu floats by…
