Poem Title:
Poem
Harold Peters led a very secret life Totally hidden from his own dear wife He didn’t work selling quality pork pies Just another of his devilish devious lies To conceal the fact when he wasn’t there He worked in a circus as a dancing bear He looked so genuine in his bear suit All the punters thought him so cute As he waltzed and stepped with skill and ease That his performing bear never failed to please And at the right time he would bark and growl Causing some of the delicate to blub and howl And show real true fear Cos the bear was so near Just an added piece of thrill And fine tribute to Harold’s skill He only got the job as a favour from a mate When the pork pie factory finally shut its gate And he needed money to make ends meet But thanks to his skill and twinkling feet Elmer the Educated Bear of Dance and Fame Fast became a world known famous name And Harold earned enough for a faster car And smoke best thigh rolled Cuban cigars But very best of all his own sweet wife Enjoyed more of the better things of life Inside his suit Harold smiled with glee As he took his bow on one bended knee Ah the pleasure and the joys Giving fun to girls and boys One last twirl and Harold’s away Another dollar and another day Tonight he though he really must try To remember for his wife a small pork pie She must never find out when Harold wasn‘t there He was the World Freestyle Dancing Champion bear And worst of all, she would think him rude Cos inside his suit he was in dressed in the nude
