Fantasy pet
She’s a baby T-Rex and she comes from the past
when the dinosaurs wandered the land.
Having dodged certain death from a meteor blast,
she now squats in the palm of my hand
Unaware she’s the luckiest creature alive,
she cavorts round the yard like a pup.
In my dreams, she continues to grow and to thrive.
In my nightmares, she gobbles me up.

Great poem, Jenny!
A well-balanced fantasy reality – made me laugh! Thanks Jenny 🙂
This had everything, Jenny: brevity, rhyme, rhythm, evocative vocabulary, and a neat, satisfying and humorous conclusion. Superlative!
Nice poem, and I got a great chuckle from the last line. Keep writing.
