Party in Bed

Most Beds are Beds

For sleeping or resting,

But the Best beds are much More Interesting!

Not just a white little

Tucked in tight little

Nighty night little

Turn out the light little

Bed

Instead

A Bed for fishing

A Bed for Cats,

A Bed for a Troupe of Acrobats

The Right sort of Bed

If you see what I mean

Is a Bed that might be a

Submarine

Nosing through water

Clear and green,

Silver and glittery

As a sardine.

Or a Jet Propelled Bed

For Visiting Mars

With Mosquito Nest

For the shooting stars....
