You're late, You're late
Why did you make us wait ?
Come quick, come fast
We're gonna have a blast
Follow me, flick that tail down and up
The party is starting, they already poured you a cup...
Why did you make us wait ?
Come quick, come fast
We're gonna have a blast
Follow me, flick that tail down and up
The party is starting, they already poured you a cup...
through the recommendation of an arty friend
It all started with a blogpost
one of despair rather than art, like I do most
She saw my little Alice spiralling down and away
It all started with a blogpost
one of despair rather than art, like I do most
She saw my little Alice spiralling down and away
and told me about this Mad Tea party - play
A larger idea emerged, a joint venture...
but first a little more about this adventureMy Alice loved water and one day stared down the pond
she dreamily watched the fishes and felt a strong bond
One day she jumped in, 'cause the fish seemed to speak
A funny fish it was, it almost had a beak
Or like a rabbit, it had two big front snippers
and Alice herself ... suddenly grew flippersThe fish took her down to a field in the deep blue sea
there was a table full of cakes and cookies and cups of teaShe partied all afternoon and well into the night
The creatures in this world were quite a sight
She wanted to stay forever to get to know them all
so she wished upon a (sea-)star by late nightfall
Let's hope she'll have her wish come true
so we'll get more stories of Alice in the deep Blue
Mad Tea Party - a Fanciful Twist

What a beautiful tea party - I feel refreshed and relaxed! Such a creative person you are! ♥
So sorry I am late
For this important date.
I'm still making my way down the list.
With too little time
I'm leaving this rhyme
For I'm adamant about wanting to persist.
All this running about
Has left me dry in the mouth.
Might I have a cup of tea?
Your Alice is new
down in waters of blue
and yet she is lovely to me
Oh my, the time
It goes so fast
I must be on my way
But fear not friend
I shall return
Please……Have a beautiful day.
So sweet and whimsical, Joyce! I loved visiting your tea party!
This was an absolutely charming party!
I love your artwork/watercolors?
I went over to see Cameron's blog too...what fun you both had planning the event.
Cheers!
Teresa in CA

Kia Ora! My god mother had that sign hanging above her front door when she lived in Vancouver, Canada for a few years. She moved back to New Zealand and almost took me with her. This was in 1967. Your painting is really special. So clean and lovely. Thank you for inviting me to your fabby party; I enjoyed myself immensely! *smiles* Norma
