In a world of wonder and delight,
Where magic lurks at every sight,
There's a place where all things meet,
Where crayons, cars, and cards compete.

A clown, with his red nose and big shoes,
Draws a curve with his crayons and sings the blues,
While a cat with a carrot in his paw,
Chases a crocodile with a mighty roar.

A campfire roars and crackles nearby,
As a cub in a cloak gives a great big sigh,
And a car races down the winding road,
With a cake on the hood, it's quite the load.

In this world of whimsy and fun,
The sky is always bright, never done,
And the crayons, cars, and cards all play,
With the animals, cakes, and clowns all day.

So come on in and take a seat,
And join the fun, don't miss a beat,
For in this world, imagination is key,
And all things are possible, just you wait and see.
