I found a bottle on a glass table
“Drink Me,” it said in funny letters.
The liquid was pink, like strawberry milk
And it smelled like cheesecake and lemon pie, indeed!
With one sip, I could touch the ceiling
The floor, far, far away
Whilst my toes were like feathers
I felt I was like a marshmallow.
In Wonderland,
A potion found does not just change your size,
It stretches your imagination
One curious sip of potion at a time.
