Was heavily wrapped
What for? I asked
'cos
Is chilly and cold
Breakfasted
Filled tummy
Quenched thirst
Had a short nap
Like hazy cloud
Descended dream
Wondered and
Imagined
I was a king
My subjects
Complaining
No food and drinks
Not plenty
They said
But enough to accord
Us comfort
Though sheltered
Need more to life
Than eat and sleep
Could not think
What else to suggest
That could help
I suddenly
Found a solution
To all the complaints
Dismissed them quickly
Said, after all
It is only a dream
Why bother
That is comfort
Felt by me
Not them.
