Turn your gaze toward the skies Where wyvern, lung, and phoenix fly. As mermaids swim through oceans blue Under Arctic ice, past coral hues. Accounts arise from here and there, Of manticores in hidden lairs, And faeries dance ’round mushroom caps As brownies steal your fabric scraps. But beware the moon and mind the howls For many hungry beasts doth prowl. My dearest trav'lers, enjoy these pages Filled with creatures throughout the ages That wander ’cross the lands of lore Where few have dared to venture forth.
