"I wish I had a pretty house,
The littlest ever seen,
With funny little red walls
And a roof of mossy green."

"We've built the little walls and roof
And made a lovely door,
So tell us, mother Wendy,
What are you wanting more?"

not a sound to be heard except from Tinker Bell, who was watching
from a branch and openly sneering...."
