Dinner with Beavers


Dining with talking beavers to me still seems a bit farfetched
But, as I think of all the fantasy books I have read it’s not much a stretch
We learned of Aslan, the prophecy and the stone table
However, to fulfill the prophecy Peter doubted himself to be able
Just when we thought things couldn’t create more confusion
Edmond had gone to the white witch, leaving us only in disillusion  

Mr. and Mrs. Beaver

While a nice beaver led us to his dam
he mentioned the name Aslan
It made me think of the holidays
And waking up to summer’s rays
Then we had a delightful supper
that completely satisfied my hunger

Mr. Tumnus Kidnapped


It’s fun to be able to say “I told you so”
I lead my siblings to Mr. Tumnus’ home in the old willow
Yet, we discovered he was arrested for reasons that made me twitch
For it was she, the one Mr. Tumnus warned me about, it was the white witch

Horrid Brother

Edmund is NASTY and MEAN
What makes him so special and supreme?
He told Susan and Peter we were playing pretend
That kind of lie I cannot mend!

The second Witness


I returned to the wardrobe again and met with Mr. Tumnus once more
When I ventured home I discovered I was not alone in coming through that magical door
My older brother Edmund had wondered through the wardrobe soon after me
Excited I was for now I had a witness and surely the truth others would soon see

Second Thoughts

I was simply amazed when I returned
that none of my siblings were concerned
I told them of the witch and tea
But they all just made fun of me
So later when we played hide and seek
I thought that I would take a peek
Because even I began to wonder. . .
But it’s true! Narnia is as real as thunder!

Tea with Tumnus


A little creature asked me if I was a daughter of eve
I replied shaking my head that my parents were Sarah and Steve 
We conversed briefly before he invited me tea
I told him I would have think and see
After a slight moment of ponder I accepted his invitation
When we arrived he offered me tea and even a music rendition
I soon fell asleep and shortly awoke in confusion
For Mr. Tumnus was crying and began his confession
I was shocked and scared, but Mr. Tumnus insisted that I return home
I don’t know if I’ll be able to speak with him again for here exists not even a phone.
