Down the Rabbit Hole



Pour me into a bottle
Watch me grow and shrink
Feed me pieces of cake
Watch me slowly blink
If you can't read my mind
I'll tell you what I think

But if you don't think
Then you shouldn't talk
So when your face is pink
Get up and take a walk
When the Cheshire gives a wink
Don't look at the clock!
If you do, you'll be like hickory and fall right off the dock

About this poem

I wrote this poem with Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, and Through the Looking Glass in mind. I adore the stories and the classic 1951 cartoon.
