we're getting the world ready.
we've softened all the edges.
we've taken all the chemicals out of everything
and used them to make fireworks to mark your arrival.

we've invented leaves that fall 20% slower
and are 100% more fun to fall into.
we made laughter that tickles from the inside,
we made playgrounds that never close,
we made oceans sparkle a little bit more.

we've created puddles that splash higher.
we made the moon follow you.
we designed skies that paint themselves at dusk and dawn,
we planted trees that provide just enough shade.

we've lined the streets with lights in case you're afraid of the dark,
we've even created something called a “puppy” and a "kitten".
we've designed friends who understand without words,
places that feel like home no matter where you are.

we've dreamed up worlds within worlds,
we've built swings that soar so high,
the sky feels reachable even with little arms.
we've made fields of grass that tickle your toes,
we've made soil that cushions, just in case.

we made the sun a little warmer just for your cheeks,
the wind a little softer just for your hair.
we've planted flowers that bloom in unexpected places
we've designed crayons that are so thick,
it...
