Fairy Tale Fantasies

How would I feel if Peter Pan
flew in with Tinkerbell, right into my room?
I'd probably scream at the sight of a flying Pan,
or squish Tinkerbell with a might sweep of my broom!

What if charming Prince Charming
rode over to say, "M'lady, 'tis a lovely day for amour" ?
I'd fall into a faint, at meeting the handsome son of a King,
then try to look demure, while gazing up from a pile of manure!

What if I saw Jack outside of my window,
climbing his beanstalk right here in my neighborhood?
I'd probably grab my camera, run out and shoot some video,
making a fortune by selling 'Jack and the Beanstalk' to Hollywood!

How would I react to Pinocchio,
if he and his nose dropped 'round to pay a call?
If I could get him to tell a lie his proboscis would grow;
but if he sneezed, would I have enough tissue to clean the wall?
