One day in my dreams, I came to a house
A house that was nigh as high as a mouse
But as I approached, the house, it grew
Until I could walk in the door and right through
I walked inside, and all I saw
Was a very long and narrow hall
Along the walls were many a door
I found I had the need to explore
The first door I opened, was to my right
Opened to a room extremely bright
Colors and rainbows littered everywhere
I had to shield my eyes from the glare
The next door I came to was something new
Neat, tidy, and grey all the way through
Boring, but calm this dark room was
I sat there a while, just because
After resting a while, I left that dark room
back into the hallway, where doors still loomed
The next one I came to, as soon as I passed
I found that the room was entirely glass!
I didn't want anything in that room to break
So one look inside was all I could take
The room across from the glass so pretty
Made me laugh, and think the house was witty
For across the hall, the room I found
was made completely of goose down!
I walked down that long and narrow hall
exploring every room I saw
Cities and jungles, desert and sea
Such a long hall, rooms too many!
I walked and expored for hours that day
Wondering how long I would stay
But then I grew lonely, there was no other soul
and the hall was closing in on me, beckoning me to go
I could see no exit, I asked, how do I leave?
The room answered my question, 'just believe'
I closed my eyes, and held still as dead
Woke up in my room, covers over my head
I said "This is my room, and this is my house,
...and I'm not as tiny as a mouse!"

Heeyyyy wait!
I know my comment is months too late,
But there is in your poem, a cliche
Something I agree with, nay!
In it you state: "Calm, boring, and dark"
Describing the room of "grey" with such remark
...To be so cruel to the word grey
This poem was great, but so too is my dismay!!!!!
Aww I didn't even think about that. Good think your "real" last name isn't Grey, eh? ^_^
lol yeah, cause "Gray" is soooo much different... XP I live in a grey zone!!
