Wonderland Dancing

Walrus and the Carpenter wanted to  dance on the shore.
“Will you join the dance ?” the Walrus asked Alice, in a friendly way.
“No, thank you,” said Alice.  “I don’t like dancing without music.  It’s not easy to dance without music, you know.’”
“Tut! What a difficult child you are!” sighed the Walrus.
“If I sing,” the Carpenter asked Alice. “would that help?”
“No, it wouldn’t! said Alice, at once.  “You make a dreadful noise when sing. I’ve heard you. I said I wanted to dance to music-not to a dreadful noise.”
Just then the Walrus noticed Tweedledee and Tweedledee, who were coming along the beach together.
“We’ve been collecting driftwood, to use as firewood,” said Tweedledum.
He was very carrying two large logs, and Tweedledee had found two thin branches.
Now Alice knew what to do ! She told Tweedledum and Tweedledee how they could help.
“Put the hallow logs on the sand,  Tweedledum,’ said Alice. “Now,  Tweedledee-you give one of your sticks to Tweedledum.  Both of you bang hallow log with stick, and if you really think about what you are doing-you should be able to make some sort of tune for us to dance to.”
Tweedledum and Tweedledee did as Alice had told them.  It was a funny bonkity-bonk, plinkity-plonk sort of tune that they made, but it sounded better than the Carpenter’s singing Anyway, thought  Alice.
“Now we can do a bonkity-bonk, plinkity-plonk sort dance ,” said the Walrus happily.  “Come along, Carpenter and Alice.
The Carpenter and Alice joined the Walrus in his funny dance along the shore.
Well, it wasn’t the sort of dancing Alice usually did, but then everything is slightly different and strange in Wonderland, isn’t?
