There's a story no one knows	A
But myself about a rose	A
And a fairy and a star	B
Where the Toyland people are	B
Once when I had gone to bed	C
Mother said it was a dream	D
From a rose above my head	C
Growing by the window beam	D
Out there popped a fairy's head	C
	-
II	E
	-
And he nodded at me smiled	F
Said 'You're fond of stories eh	G
Well I know a star each child	F
Ought to know It's far away	H
Foryour kind but not for me	I
I will take you to that star	B
Where you'll hear new stories see	I
Close your eyes It is n't far	B
That is 't is n't far for me '	-
	-
III	E
	-
And he'd hardly spoken when	J
From the rose there came a moth	K
And before you'd counted ten	J
We were on it and were both	L
Flying to that star that made	M
Silver sparkles in the air	N
And though I was not afraid	M
I was glad when we were there	N
And the moth was stabled white	O
In a lily bud and we	I
Went to find the fay or sprite	O
Who he said would welcome me	I
	-
IV	P
	-
And we found her 'T was n't long	Q
Till we heard a twittering song	Q
And a toy bird with white eyes	R
Flew before us from the skies	R
Like those in my Noah's Ark	S
And we followed it and came	T
To the strangest land our park	S
Is just like it just the same	T
Toy trees squirrels birds and brooks	U
And a castle on the hill	V
Just like those in story books	U
And upon its windowsill	V
Leaned a lovely Princess She	I
Smiled at me and that was all	V
As a doll smiles and to me	I
She was like a great big doll	V
	-
V	I
	-
Then before I knew it I	E
Was inside her palace there	N
In the room and everywhere	N
Dolls and story books and my	E
All the dolls began to sing	W
Rhymes or read and others told	X
Stories just like everything	W
Better stories than the old	X
Ones my father reads me in	Y
Mother Goose and books like Grimm	Z
That he hates so to begin	Y
Tales for which I bother him	Z
Since he says both tales and rhymes	A2
He has read a thousand times	A2
	-
VI	E
	-
Blue Beard and the Yellow Dwarf	P
And the lovely Rapunzel	V
She whose hair was once a scarf	P
For a prince to climb by Nell	V
Little Nell or else her twin	Y
Who somehow had happened in	Y
And the Sleeping Beauty who	B2
Seemed asleep and sat there dumb	C2
Hansel and sweet Grethel too	B2
Snow dropp and Hop o' my Thumb	C2
Rumpelstiltzkin Riding Hood	D2
And the Babes lost in the Wood	D2
Met around a little table	V
Where I sat beside a Queen	E2
Queen of Hearts and dressed in green	E2
Robin Hood a eating tarts	F2
While old sop told a fable	V
Sitting by the King of Hearts	F2
	-
VII	P
	-
And the waiters were Bo Peep	G2
Knave of Hearts and Marjory Daw	H2
Boy Blue slow as if asleep	G2
And the Woman who slept on Straw	H2
And the little dishes all	V
Though they seemed so were not small	V
Painted blue and green and gold	X
With the stories I'd heard told	X
Pictures forming of themselves	I2
Of the Elf Queen and the Elves	I2
Never never have I seen	E2
Service like it Then the talk	J2
All about the Fairy Queen	E2
And the Land of Tarts and Pies	R
Where those three fat brothers go	K2
Greedygut with tiny eyes	R
Like a pig's and Sleepyhead	X
With his candle going to bed	X
And old creepy footed Slow	K2
Of these three they made great talk	J2
And that Land where Scarecrows stalk	J2
And the Jack o' Lanterns grow	K2
Row on glaring goblin row	K2
	-
VIII	P
	-
Suddenly among them there	N
At my back above my chair	N
Cried a Cuckoo Clock and why	E
There I was back home and I	E
Was n't nowhere but in bed	X
And my mother standing by	E
Smiling at me I could cry	E
When I think the things they said	X
That I can'tremember now	L2
Though I try and try and try	E
But I knowthis anyhow	L2
I was in that star I know	K2
And in Toyland Does n't seem	D
Anything but true although	K2
Mother says it was a dream	D
