Once upon a time I opened a book.
Beyond its pages is where I had to look.
Deep in the centre,
Was the World that I entered…
I fell down a rabbit hole,
To be greeted by my friend the mole.
As we walked people would shout ‘hello’,
The road we followed, the brightest of yellow.
I left him to the side,
As I took off for a ride,
On the most magnificent flying bed.
There was a girl under the cover,
She was waiting for her lover.
Slumber had taken her for one hundred years.
I heard it from Goldie and the three bears.
With the clouds open wide,
The green twisting stems had nowhere to hide.
I’d pay my friend Jack a little visit.
The bed flew out of sight,
As I tried with all of my might,
To walk the walk,
To climb the massive stalk.
As I reached the top,
I heard a humongous drop.
I knew what my mother would say,
There were big heavy footsteps coming my way.
I wished upon a star,
That my dreams would take me far,
Or at least take me to neverland.
I fell from the sky,
With tears in my eyes,
And awoke on a mattress of books.
I had just enough time,
To think up this little rhyme,
And allow you all to see,
As I wait for the tiger to come to tea…
