Notes About The Poem

A Friend In You

Funny, finding you here, Winnie the Pooh! I remember
             Clutching you snugly to my chest as I closed
      My tired eyes to sleep last night, and now here you are?
   There's no tree big enough to hide you, or come between us
            Let's not play hide and seek now. I just want to
     Wrap my arms around you once again. Mommy and daddy 
 Have left me to my devices, so don't hide from me, dear Winnie
               Who needs toys when I have a friend in you?
