Slowly vanishing paws
Gentle, smiling jaws
The day feels good enough
Perhaps I should bark.
I'll offer to take tea with the mad
Surely when she has crossed
The Eighth Square
She's been had.
Put me in a little deal-box
But my grin will never fade
I hope you've sampled the sandwiches
Blotting-paper pudding piping-hot
Introduce yourself to the mutton
Then dream a dream of a thousand pounds
But are we things of the Red King's dream?
Watching you sail away waving scented rushes
Her majesty's flag
Tumbling down from the wall
Look- the prize- a golden crown!
Take good advice: put your lips to mine
Drink Me
Shoes and ships and sealing-wax
Whether pigs could fly
Some plum-cake, ham sandwiches, and hay
Did you steal the pepper-tarts?
Twinkle, twinkle little bat
Come fly down the brick wall
Oh, Tiger Lily, sing Golden Afternoon
Not fun anymore, majesty?
The two-step with the Griffin
Lions and Unicorns, did they fight?
The Queen locked them up
You only dreamed us, after all.
