Cheshire Cat's Lullaby by ~cheshirechica:iconcheshirechica:

Categories Literature > Poetry > General Poetry > Song


Dear little Alice, please don't cry
Tears of woe won't help you get by
I know that you feel scared, lost and alone
Since you cannot find your way back home

Have strange things happened?
Is there anything I need to know?
Did you taste things that make you shrink or grow?
Did you suffer any, please say it isn't so!

I will help you out, just wait and see
You'd be glad that you found a cat like me
I'll show you around this fascinating place
Only if you keep a smile on your face

No more reading signs that say "This way" or "Yonder"
Now you don't have to sit down and try to ponder
Which way should you go, you ask?
I seem to find that a fairly simple task

Just follow my grin, for you will know soon
How much it looks like a glowing crescent moon
Don't be afraid, please follow my advice
Surely you don't even need to think twice...

Oh look, there's the Queen all dressed in red,
Hear how she screams "Off with your head!"
Those are the very words that everyone dreads
Would you like to keep your head?

Quick, Alice! Run! The cards are after you!
Run through this door, I'll protect you!
Dry your eyes, Alice because there's no time to cry
You'll see me again as the years come flying by
And just when you think that this might be the end
Never forget, that in your heart, you'll always be my friend...

A poem about Alice's and the Cheshire Cat's friendship. I always saw the Cheshire Cat like a guardian, one whom you can count on, even though he is a little mad...

There's only one way to fix a clock. And that's with sugar, butter, jam, and tea. But no mustard. That would be silly.

Have you been told that you’re a rude old hag lately? Or is it just assumed?

This was very haunting and beautiful, especially since I heard it in my mind in the voice of the Cheshire Cat from the game. My version of the cat was a bit more fickle then yours, but I like this idea better of a dedicated guardian, slightly unhinged.
I really like this one though :) :+favlove:

You know what, you should be happy. The sky's still blue, and the grass is (mostly) green, and YOU ARE ALIVE AND (hopefully) WELL!!! SO SMILE DAMN YOUR EYES!

When you can’t think English, parle en Français.
Where ‘ere you walk, turn out your toes.
When you forget everything, remember who you are.
And always, always beware the Jabberwock.
