The center of my world
Is bright, colorful
And sometimes rainy
But a rainbow will always follow

The center of my world
Has stripped elephants
Kangaroos that swim
And panda bears that run like lightening

The center of my world
Has tons of people
With tons of stories
All of them are waiting to be told

The center of my world
Will never leave me
It always follows
And you wait there for me to come home

I like the imagery and its quirkiness. And i love the sense of emotion you get when you talk about tons of people with their own stories
