Good Dreams
That night tiny Snowflake couldn’t fall asleep.

She was wondering where the good dreams live.

To find one, Snowflake rushed downstairs.

May be they live in rose gardens, inside of the white and pink roses

May be they live in blackberry muffins, and smell so good people turn towards them their noses.
11
May be the good dreams are shy, and they live in the kitchen, among the jars.

May be they really love to fly, and they live high in the mountains, near the stars.

Suddenly something moved under the kitchen table. Snowflake curled up in a blanket. 17

“Woof!” — said labrador Ruby and moved in her sleep. She was having her own good dream. 19
May be some good dreams live in the granny’s room, and they play with her cat and hide her glasses.

May be they live in the primary school, and fly away every morning when children come for the classes

Snowflake looked everywhere, but there was no trace of the good dreams. She yawned, and went back to her room.

The moon sparkled. Two little frogs jumped in the garden.

Knock, knock! Hush, hush Good dreams quietly marsh. Like the fairies they bring stories and tales, And they sing their song: “Bala-boo, bala-bash”. They dance, they jump, They play the drum, But when someone in a house wakes up — The good dreams end up their fun. They say “good day!” and go away. But when we sleep they start again Tell their stories, and play, and marsh And sing their song: “Bala-boo, bala-bash”.
