Tiger Sheets

Sitting here at my desk
I think of going home
Of slumber clouds that fill my room
My bed of thickest foam

My tiger sheets and leopard throws
Upon my fluffy bed
My plump filled downy pillow shams
Where I will lay my head

The room is dark as it can be
Black drapes so sleek and tall
The Lion roars  from painted frame
That hangs upon my wall

A cheetah stalks the jungle frame
With stealth and cunning charm
The figurines upon my shelf
Sharp teeth that seek no harm

Dark elephant of leather shape
Upon a leopard skin
Protects my black alarm clock
From predators within

Gazelles, giraffee and zebra too
Run free above the drawers
That hide my lingerie of black
My treasures from the stores

I sigh a sigh of yearning thought
To lie upon my bed
With visions of Safari theme
That all surrounds my head

The quilt so thick and soft to touch
It drapes down to the floor
The comforter of black and tan
From JC Penney's store

Ebony board that holds the rails
A touch of gold it trims
Walls are bathed in Burro beige
Exotic animal skins

Music playing soft and low
Melodies fill my mind
Now the beat begins to throb
Its Jungle Love you'll find

So here I sit, at my desk
Desiring to be at home
To float and drift in peaceful sleep
On my bed of thickest foam

I love my room, I love my bed
This fact is surely true
The only thing that I'd like more
Is Coming home to you.
