March, the month of Spring, the month of new beginnings, the month of rebirth

The old saying As Mad as A March Hare springs to mind

The picture is from Alice in Wonderland Teaparty

Rewrite a verse/song from the March Hare for the teaparty

Have fun, make it as funny and off the wall as you can

A stupid Tea Party

First I saw a hare and Hatter
At a table under the large tree
Then I saw the sleepy dormouse
They sat at one corner, all three.
No room here, they all cried
I see loads of room I shouted
So I went and just sat down
Of course the March hare pouted.

Have you any wine I asked
We have none, they all said
Plenty of tea for you to drink
And too much hair on your head.
I was asked many stupid things
And they all were very rude
The dormouse talked in his sleep
And there wasn’t any food.

The March hare had a funny watch
I even told him so
It didn’t even tell the time
But told horoscopes you know.
All three kept telling jokes
The answers I didn’t know
But they just went on and on
I just felt daft and slow.

Well I can sing the dormouse said
But he just rapped all the time
It just went on and on
The ridiculous to the sublime
Well I was getting very cold
I told them I must go
For it is March in England you see
And I know it's going to snow.

I then started to walk away
For dormouse had fallen asleep
Hatter and Hare put him in the tea pot
For it was warm and deep
What a really stupid tea party
The worst one of my life
So I just walked out on them
To much stress and strife.

As any March Hare tends to know,
the cosmos is anxious to grow.
To hop high, a party
proves utterly arty
while adding fresh layers of snow.

TEA PARTY

I was invited to a tea party you see
Can I bring guests if I choose to I asked with glee
I suppose it will be exciting and a treat to explore
Maybe if I have a real great time I won't want to go home anymore

I accepted with excitement and said I would be there
It was on saturday whatever would I wear
I left the woods and said thank you so much
I'll see you this week-end I hope to catch up

So saturday came and I attended the party
Everyone there drank and ate hearty
A merry old time was had by all
I'll never forget this day it was like attending a ball

All of my friends showed up in their finest
Merry were they as well as I as we were dining
Food in abundance and drink of all flavors
Indulging so much our tummies savoring

The mad hatter the hare and other friends too
Showed up at this gathering in red white and blue
A beautiful sunny day made it a perfect event
In case of an unexpected rain erected was a huge tent
