Teddy Bears
Plush animals of all kinds show children we care,
But nothing compares to the teddy bear,
Soft and cuddly, there is no disguise,
A tail, two ears, and big bright eyes,
Two arms and two legs, he does no harm,
Fits right into the crook of a little one’s arm,
Easy to hug and snuggle at night,
And scare away creatures who give them a fright,
Sometimes a teddy bear gets worn to the thread,
But the child insists on taking him to bed,
He gets dirty and sticky, can get smelly too,
He needs to be washed, but it’s really hard to do,
The bear is missed when he is away,
In sight of the child is where he must stay,
An American favorite right from the start,
A teddy bear is close to a precious child’s heart.
