Things To Give Away
Tarny was a little bear
A teddy bear he be
Coat was as white as snow
To this we all agree
.
Tarny was a Christmas gift
Given to a lady fair
Was sent by her Tarnished Knight
How she wished that he was there
.
Tarny wore a little coat
Where pinned upon his sleeve
A note from her Tarnished Knight
Said "will you read me please "
.
"Sorry I can't be with you
On this Christmas day
I know its very hard for you
That I'm so far away"
.
"So I am sending Tarny
For you to now embrace
I will be there very soon
Then I will take his place"
.
"Tarny has a special gift
He'll make your dreams come true
Just close your eyes and make a wish
You will see what he can do"
.
Tears now flowed from her eyes
Squeezing Tarny oh so tight
Closed her eyes and made wish
To dream of the Tarnished one tonight
.
That was some time ago
In another Christmas past
Once there was hopes and dreams
Somehow they didn't last
.
Tarny now is put away
Never sees the light of day
Shares a space with odds and ends
In box of " things to give away"
.
Fleece once of snow flake white
Now has stains of crimson red
Came from a broken heart
Oh! how Tarny bled
.
So if you find a little bear
Slightly stained in red
May not be a teddy
But this Tarnished Knight instead
