MY BED

I turned over languorously in my bed

Despite the pounding in my head

I’d slept peacefully all night long

The radio was playing a song

As I nodded slowly into slumber

Hoping the nightmare didn’t recur.

I stretched my arms to the side of the bed

Ruffling the covers of the pretty bedspread

With its pink polka dots, flowers, fancy

Scrolls and butterflies, I reached for my teddy.

A comforter although I am grown now

Some people would still raise an eyebrow

I didn't care what they thought

He helped me when I was distraught.

I hear the stairs creak

I only manage a tiny squeak.
