Fantasy

There in the woods
There in the snow
There in a place
where strange creatures go


Deep in the forest
Deep in the brush
Deep in the center
far away from us


Once as a child
Once with a book
Once upon a time
I went for a look


To my surprise
Two rabbits appeared
To kindly greet me
which seemed rather weird


A fox with some crumpets
A weasel with some tea
A badger with a placemat
set just for me


We dined until moonfall
We sang winters song
We danced with ice fairies
merrily and long

Time it was to go
Time was calling me
Time to meet mother
for my breakfast tea
