Sleeping Bunny - Monday's Child #36

Monday's Child #36

I'm reading a magic storybook

Because when I open each page

I'm a character inside the story

And I'm very very brave

I tiptoe softly through each page

As everyone's asleep you see

I must be there for a long long time

Because tree roots are growing over me

The roots are tickling my tummy

And they tickle my little toes

I'm trying hard to open my eyes

But sleep has kept them closed

They give me hugs and kisses

and surround my pretty head

All the while I'm in the book

Yet I'm really inside my bed

And then of course I realize

that I am the Sleeping Bunny

Dreaming sweet Princess dreams

Waiting for Prince Wabbit to kiss me

The End.
