I Wonder

I wondered as I wandered.. where I'd find wonderland these days

seems my wonder for wander has all run away

The tea cups and wild rabbits have been corralled and caged

and I found myself lost in some mystical maze

Caught in a mist, in some magical haze

that blew in from the west, from a nude beach in LA

Where the hares and the hairless procured all the awe

stole the shock and the splendor and locked it up in a vault

The kings helped the queens find their crowns, down on vine

and reminded the rabbits the importance of time

And somewhere in the mayhem, my wonder appeared

on the backs of wild rabbits and hares wearing beards

I smiled as it hit me, it had been there the whole time

the magic of wonder, wandered in on my rhymes
