The Faraway TreeDeep in an enchanted forest, there was a magic tree Inside its trunk was a slippery dip so you could slide down easily Atop its magic branches visited every day Different strange and mysterious lands, all from faraway There was Topsy Turvy land, everything upside down Not So Happy Land, where everyone wore a frown The Land Of Do As You Please always was a treat Then there was the Land Of Clumsy Folk where everyone had two left feet But the very strangest land of them all Was the one where from daybreak through to nightfall The folk in this land breathed from a stick Noxious fumes into their lungs which made them quite sick In this land the folk shunned clean fresh air all around And if you climb the branches up from the ground Of the Faraway Tree and arrive in this land I suggest you slide down the slippery dip as fast as you can Alessandra Liverani Sydney, Australia Copyright © 2005 Alessandra Liverani |
