The Great Winding Stair

The Great Winding Stair............ To the galleries........ Above and below For, the stories on each stair............. More magical than the last Tales from ages past......... So many to tell So far to go............. The spell The children flock........... To the Great Winding Stair For, much is there......... The Enchanted Ones, climb to the top, and open the lock The locks of the heart............. Opened on the Great Winding Stair The stories to fill you............. with flowers............ magic............ and stars.......... the faeries too......... The heart laid bare For The Great Winding Stair, cannot go up............. Cannot go down Yet............. It is there The stories it can tell........ tTe stories found........... Leaving you spellbound The stories bound...... The stories dwell......... Tiny flutter of tiny glowing lights........... Upon The Great Winding Stair Magic cast..... Tales to last.............. The twisting flights On a Great Winding Stair......... That cannot rise Nor, go down......... The steps are there The laughter of children so......... On The Great Winding Stair Chasing tiny glowing lights Listening to tales from long ago...... Running up the flights To take yourself there........ A touch of handrail The story trail A castle tale.............. From long ago The Great Winding Stair Opening the heart so
