    I don't know if this thread fits in this section since it's not my hw,,,but...

    i just got off the phone with my little cousin and my aunt from HK,

    and my aunt gave me a poem that my cousin needs to recite...

    she asked me for the meaning of the poem and honestly,,,i don't really get it ALL.

    so pleaseee, help me!!!!

    Pretending by Bobbi Katz

    When you are in bed, and it's cold outside,

    Do you ever pretend that you have to hide?

    Do you curl up your toes and wrinkle your nose?

    Do you make yourself little so none of you shows?


    Do you pull the sheet over the whole of your face,

    And pretend you are in some far away place?

    Mother thinks you are sleeping,

    But she does not know,

    That all tucked in your bed, you have places to go.


    ----


    Basically, what does "that all tucked in your bed, you have places to go." mean????

    i think it's about dreaming too ..
    cus when you dream, it's kind of like pretending?
    and when you dream, you're tucked in bed but in your dream you're in a different place .. :confused:
