Under Lock and Key

Under Lock and Key


I found myself locked in a golden cage

I was trying so hard to escape

There was not only me

I was in a room full of fairytale curiosities

I had been snatched from my fairytale book

I’m missing from all the fairytale pages

There was Cinderella’s golden pumpkin carriage

Filled with many old fashioned keys

A kind hand is helping me to escape

So many beautiful keys

The kind hand secretly passes to me

We are careful not to let our captor see

She must be a Wicked Witch from a fairytale

She must have escaped from her fairytale book

She has so many fairytale souvenirs

Some film characters stuck in a poster too!

Never to be set free

Has she stolen theatre shows too?

The delicious Gingerbread Men

Just out the oven

Such a spicy aroma

Are held captive and gagged too!

A treasured cat

Hidden deep

Syringes with bright coloured magic potions and spells

To give me a fairy spell boost?

Red bows decorate a Christmas Tree

Maybe she stole Christmas too?

She is holding the Christmas juicy turkey and shortcrust mince pies captive too!

Has she stolen cinema too?

Pictures from the big screen and DVD’s!

She has the crunchy popcorn too!

I have to escape and save all the fairytales!

Save the moving pictures!

Save the theatres!

Save Christmas!

Escape from the Wicked Witch

Escape from my golden cage

I’m still under lock and key
