Was it Wonderland or a dream obscene?

Could the mind create such a curious dream?

The mind could do anything Alice supossed

Having been stretch to the sky then shrunk to her toes

Her experiences were very odd indeed

But was it her imagination she was trying to feed?

It seemed plausible to have a bottle reading "drink me"

But how could tears fill a room like a sea?

She knew it was a place but did not know where

Where had a hatter, a queen and a march hare?

It seemed a little obsurd that was for sure

And all of this from following a white rabbit and door!

What on earth was a mockturtle and who was this Queen?

Alice could not make out entirely what she had seen

A Cheshire cat had grinned a huge smile

Helping or hindering confusing all the while!

And what of those tea parties going on all day?

Well in reality that was simply not the way!

But it felt very real and maybe it was

Who accepts the "truth" just because?

No, sensible people question all that you know

Though Wonderland is a mystery that much I know

Is it real? Is it different for each person in turn?

Perhaps it's just something we live not learn

Alice escaped after a giant Queen and card chase

But are you willing to visit in her place?
