Where It's Safe For Them

There is a place where children stay
in a virtual Neverland,
where it's safe for them to play.

Happiness at their command
and broccoli that tastes like cheese
in a virtual Neverland.

Clouds that you can grab and squeeze
that taste just like marshmallows
and broccoli that tastes like cheese.

Lots of laughing funny fellows
riding unicycles and juggling balls
that taste just like marshmallows.

They giggle so hard they trip and fall
and they never ever get hurt
riding unicycles and juggling balls.

It's important that I reassert,
there is a place where children stay 
and they never ever get hurt
where it's safe for them to play.

Im in awe. This is a fabulous write and it appears that a terzanelle is a very difficult form. You made me want to try it.
