Magic Bedroom

As a gull soars so very high,
A gorgeous full moon is in the sky
And a ship out to sea,
Aboard, a man without a knee,
My crystal necklace sparkling bright,
That could light up the entire night,
My silver tabby with turquoise eyes,
Some wispy clouds in the skies,
A gold crested cockatoo on the frame of my bed,
And below, my small teddy called Ted,
A stunning unicorn looking proud,
My special lorikeet, being loud,
Charming birds on the door,
Some water spilling on the floor,
Humans' lives may be tragic,
But this bedroom is truly magic!
