I’ve got a friend
no one can see
That nobody hears
only me
He’s not a ghost
or anything scary
A cartoon rabbit
or a wicked fairy
He’s hard to describe
(looks a bit like me)
Though bigger and stronger
like I want to be
He’s there each morning
and throughout the day
We watch telly together
read or play
There are jokes to tell
and secrets to share
When I’m not well
it’s good that he’s there
I know he’s not real
it’s only pretend
And I’ll grow out of him
in the end
For when I’m older
I intend
To find an
un-imaginary friend.
