Oh perilous place
Walk backwards towards you
After she slid into the wardrobe, Lucy walked backwards, waiting to run into the back of it, unknowingly walking into a new world.
Blink disbelieving eyes
Chilled to the bone
After entering the strange, snowy world, all Lucy could do was look around in awe.
Most visibly brave
No apprehended bloom
First to take this foot to virgin snow
Lucy was not afraid as she ventured further into this world.
I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a Wunderkind
Being the young girl she was, Lucy was the picture of innocence. Without knowing it, she had unlocked all the magic of Narnia and its innocence.
And I lift the envelope pushed far enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne
Destined to serve, destined to roam
When she first stepped into the magical wardrobe, Lucy had no idea that she was on the way to fulfilling a prophecy to rule the beautiful country she found herself in.
Oh ominous place
Spellbound and unchild-proofed
Narnia had always been wild and tame at the same time. It was welcoming of all creatures, yet it had secrets and creatures that were not welcoming or friendly.
My least favorite shelter
Bear alone
Lucy never felt alone or burdened in Narnia. After all, she had her friends, she had her siblings next to her, and best of all, she had Aslan. He was always with her, even if he wasn't actually there. His spirit was with her.
Compatriots in face
They'd cringe if I told you
Our best back-pocket secret
Our bond full blown
Whenever she came back to England, Lucy could not bring herself to tell her friends and family about Narnia. They wouldn't understand. So, Lucy fondly reminisced to herself about Narnia. Or the four siblings got together and shared memories.
And, I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a Wunderkind
And, I am a pioneer naïve enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to the throne
Destined to seek, destined to know
After her last time in Narnia, on King Caspian's voyage, Lucy knew that Narnia would always be on her heart and mind. She knew that even as she grew and roamed in England, she would always been a queen in Narnia.
Most beautiful place
Reborn and blown-off roof
After that first time, it seemed that Narnia grew in beauty each time Lucy entered the world. And, as Narnia grew in beauty, so did Lucy.
My view about face-whether
Great will be done
In all her years of ruling and her subsequent trips back to Narnia, Lucy's main concern was always for her people and for the greater good of Narnia and its neighboring countries.
I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a Wunderkind
I am a ground-breaker naïve enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne
Lucy was young and sweet and innocent. The picture of a magnet, ground-breaker, and princess as she unknowingly activated a prophecy.
I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a Wunderkind
I am Joan of Arc and smart enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Lucy's many adventures in Narnia taught her how to be graceful and fierce. Both a princess and Joan of Arc. Ready to face the battles, but also rule in harmony by her siblings' sides.
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Lucy grew to understand that she was destined to rule in Narnia. After all, "once a king or queen in Narnia, always a king or queen". And, in England, Lucy felt destined to roam around until she could enter back into her favorite place; her home; her Wunderkind.
