"A boat beneath a sunny sky,
Lingering onward and dreamily
In an evening of July-
Children three that nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Pleased a simple tale to hear-
Long has paled the sunny sky:
Echoes fade and memories die.
Autumn frosts have slain July.
Still she haunts me, phantomwise,
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes.
Children, yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.
In a wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summer die:
Ever drifting down the stream-
Lingering in the golden gleam-
Life, what is it but a dream?"

I love the Alice in Wonderland movies (the new ones) but I don't really like the writing style of Lewis and I also dislike Alice, I find her quite annoying

I'm glad to have experienced this series even if it wasn't for me.
