Alice At The Dinner Party Poem by Mary Angela Douglas
Alice At The Dinner Party
Alice at the dinner party
In her navy frock
Wore a collar of Battenburg lace
And watched the evening clock
Waited for the twilight stars
Like trains out of the din
And sped away with firefly jars
And opened them and then
Rehearsed the scenes from earlier
Earlier in the day
And had the same glad feeling
When she was home to stay.
