My Chair

One day I made myself a chair That could take me anywhere. I sat on it this morning and went to yesterday Time, you see, can be bent, Off I went,on my chair I leant* I ended up freezing at my goal, The chair had taken me to the North Pole. I stood up and walked around for a bit, To try to make some sense of it. A Polar Bear came from it's lair, Looking for something to eat. Oh No, I cried and jumped back in my seat. Then, before I knew where I was, The chair had took me to the Land of OZ. The cowardly Lion and Tin Man were there, Dorothy, Toto and Scarecrow without a care, A couple of clicks and I was off agen*. I landed in Kansas and met Aunty Em. 'twas but a dream for Dottie, I know, The chair decided , it was time to go, And hustled me off again for another flight, It was back home, where I did alight. I opened my eyes,'twas but a dream in the night. *my new words?? © Dave Timperley 16/09/2018
