The Jungle

Our living room transforms
no longer the same. Couch is an
elephant draperies become
some vines. Pretend
game with little
girl and her Momma
overtakes the happy home. The dog is the
giraffe and the cat now a tiger. We
play for hours not
stopping to check our
clock. Lamps are trees
looming overhead
our chairs are now zebras monkeys and
hippos. Laughter rings
all around as we
are stalked by wild hunters
on four legs. Sheets
from the bed our
tent as hide from all
the wildlife. Daddy
comes home much surprised
we call out to him
"Welcome to the jungle."
