Down the rabbit hole. Wake me when it's over. A white rabbit keeps babbling somethig about time. A cat with a silly grin disappears leaving only a smile behind. A secret, worldly smile that can be quite annoying after a while. And I am about to have tea with a Mad Hatter who is saner than me. Somewhere there's a voice shouting "Off with her head!" But The Queen of Hearts doesn't frighten me. I happen to know her personally. Ida Werrett |

Thanks for the comments, Guys. Alice In Wonderland was one of my favorite childhood stories. It has so many hidden meanings...just like real life. Ida |

I'm a huge Lewis Carroll fan so I enjoyed this. The White Rabbit put on his spectacles. 'Where shall I begin, please your Majesty?' he asked. 'Begin at the beginning,' the King said gravely, 'and go on till you come to the end: then stop.' |

But what of Dweedle-Dee and Dweedle-Dum Who together weren’t worth a middle thumb Or the hookah smokin’ pooka ‘pillar chum Whose questions caused identity numb Though some would rather play heart attack croquet Flamingos and hedgehogs might get in the way Thus I’d just assume let the rabbit run away And forego what ever the red queen might say "We'll chase them like rats across the tundra." |
