The Statue
“The little less
and how much
it is”—James R. Barrie
“Peter Pan” directions
_______________________
Peter grows up—
But the Peter Pan statue
Stays just the same
Never pinched—
Or short of money
In this Land of Queens
A most ordinary—
Manner & naturalness
Must be portrayed
No extravagance—
No theatric mannerisms
No overplaying unnaturally
No matter how queer—
The Statue letting Peter
Speak for himself
