Poem
Teddy Bears in Space Enlisted in the flying school To join the Space Brigade They’ve all been trying very hard To try and make the grade. Up an coming Space Cadets The Teddy Bears are training How to fly a Rocket Ship The switches need explaining They put them on a roundabout And spin them round at speed Ted and Rupert both threw up A clean up was agreed. Next they put them in a pond And turned them upside down Lionel lost his facemask He thought that he might drown. Out they came, and off they went To learn bout navigation Where the stars are in sky Important information!! A special plane then took them up From very high it dived Had them floating in the air Surprised they all survived. 1st time on a Rocket Ship They didn’t know was ready Someone pressed the blast off button They all looked round at Freddy. At first there wasn’t much that happened But with countdown soon complete All fell down now with a thud Pressure pushed them in their seat. Up and up their Rocket went Through clouds and atmosphere Floating in Space suits Faces full of fear. Many miles out past the moon And on their way to Mars The only thing to see from window Was blackness moons and Stars. All the fuel was now used up The spaceship floated on Five Teddy Bears all frightened A way home route was gone. Lionel turned the radio on Remembered from his training That if he used correct wave length Could be some help obtaining. The speaker crackled into life With distant voice from far A plan was been calculated At first might seem bizarre. In the cupboard near the front Were Fifteen tins of beans Feed them all to Freddy Along with plates of greens. Don’t let him do a single fart Although it may seem cruel With any luck there’s half a chance You can use his gas as fuel. Connected up with wires and pipes Our Freddy was aghast Then at a special time prepared Fred gave a mighty blast. His fart came out, went down a tube And into Rocket engine Filled the tanks to overflow Then Rupert pressed Ignition. The motor roared back into life With sparks and bangs and smoke It set them on their way back home This really was no joke. They landed at the Space Centre On a path that they had mapped And when they left the capsule Then everybody clapped. They thought that they might be in trouble For their un-expected trip But then they all got medals And a 1st class scholarship. J D Healey
