the lost girl

never neverland

peter's crying woke Annabelle out of bed she was not surprised to see a strange boy on the nursery floor instead she was curious about him

she walked over to him and said boy why are you crying?she asked peter stood up to bow to her which Annabelle replied with a curtsy.what is your name peter asked my name is Annabelle elizabeth rose darling she replied what is yours? I'm peter pan he said is that all?she asked

it is enough he said

where do you live she asked

I live on the second star to the right then straight on till morning he replied

what a funny address she replied no it is not he said

I mean is that how they address your letters she asked

I don't get any letters was the answer

but your mother must get letters she said next

I don't have a mother he replied as it were nothing

oh peter she said no wonder you were crying

I was not crying about mothers he shouted i was crying because I can't get my shadow to stick back on me and i was not crying he added

I cam help with that she said then she went to get her sewing kit and sewed his shadow back on 

when peter realized he and his shadow were back together he cried out with joy

Annabelle look he shouted my shadow my very own shadow

it is only a shadow she replied

yes but it is all mine i am so clever oh the cleverness of me he cried smugly

of cause I did nothing Annabelle scoffed your just conceited

conceited?not me its just that I am what I am and I'm me when I look to myself and I see to myself all the wonderful things that I see if I'm pleased with my self I have every good reason to be.

I gotta crow I"m just the cleverest  fellow twas my fortune to know I taught a trick to my shadow to stick to my toe I've gotta crow

I've gotta brag I think that its sweet that I have fingers and feet I can wiggle and wag I can climb trees and play tag in the breeze in the medows below I've gotta crow

if I were a very ordinary every day thing ,I'd never be heard cock a doodling round like a bird

so nautrally when I discover the cleverness of a remarkable me how can I hide when deep down inside it just tickles me so that I've gotta crow.

peter that was wonderful cried Annabelle,she even said that she would give him a kiss but peter did not know what a kiss was.surley you know what a kiss is she said surprised.

I shall know when you give me one he said.not wanting to be rude she handed him a thimble

now I shall give you a kiss too he said thinking a kiss was a present he gave her an acorn which she said she would wear it with a chain round her neck.

I promise to wear this forever she promised,she was lucky she did wear it for it was to save her life.she asked peter how old he was

I am quite still young he replied you see I ran away the day I was born because I heard my parents talking what I was to be when I became a man.so I ran away to a place where I can always be a boy and to have fun he explained

where is it asked Annabelle

its a secret place he said

please tell me she pleaded

would you believe me if I told you?

yes

promise?

promise

I have a place where dreams are born and time is never planned,its not on any chart you must find it with your heart.

and that's my home where dreams are born and time is never planned.just think of lovely things and your heart will fly on wings forever in never neverland

what does it look like Annabelle asked 

its a island explained peter

a large one?

no its very small and there are different seasons at different parts of the island except there's no winter.

how I wish I could see it wished Annabelle.

but you can,close your eyes what do you see said peter as she shut her eyes.

I see a pool with different kind of colors and the colors are so bright their taking on a different shape.I see it she cried joyfully.

that's it Annabelle that's my island

you'll have a treasure if you stay there,more perious far then gold for once you have found your way there you can never never grow old.
