Tea Time in Wonderland

again, '05... my first EVER attempt at a sonnet

The clock strikes twelve in this land far away
Tea-pot is sounding its monotone tune
As we frolic to the table to-day
The cushion-like chairs provide needed room

All are now seated; the party begins
Butler serves tarts as we chat merrily
"One lump or two, in your tea, my dear friends?"
Random replies of "Yea Verily"

Once we are done, we return to our larks
Our thirsts now quenched with the lingering tea
Beset behind us are no rude remarks
For kindness and truth, the drink lets us see

We leave our place in a time that's unknown
But only to you, this place have I shown
 

Author's Note

Eh, I might revise this one too.

Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass have always been two of my favorite books, so I loved the theme immediately! You create such a world of imagery and feeling that makes the reader want to stay for more... Thank you for sharing this write!

Revise as you see fit...I see it as a wonderful bit! : )

A lot of truth in the last lines:

"We leave our place in a time that's unknown
But only to you, this place have I shown"

I like this a lot!!!
