Over the sky high mountains and across the rough blue seas,
there lies a little red cottage surrounded by sweet buzzing bees.
As the old wooden door is slowly opened, the house echoes throughout,
and the long endless hallways fill with bright spirits that joyfully dance about.
They surround a small gleaming silver box that holds a tiny, precious, golden key,
a key to open another door, to set these glowing spirits free.
Just one turn and you'll release your greatest hopes and dreams and you'll be able to be who you truly want to be.
So, why have you still not turned the key?
