Boy And Bear
What a wonderful place,
a playroom
full of all my favorite things.
During the day we play,
the bear and I.
We ride the trains,
scare the ducks,
knock over all the blocks
or fill the cars
with toy soldiers.
At night when I'm not there,
the toys come alive
and have parties
where no people are allowed
---but---
oh, I would like
to take a peek.
