Bear

One day while walking thru the woods 
I saw a big brown bear 
I looked at him he looked at me  
We both just stopped and stared 

He looked at my fingers 
As I looked at his nose 
He looked at my funny ears 
That  were  blue because it was cold

He looked at my woolen hat 
And very rosy cheeks 
As I was wondering to myself 
I wonder what bears eat

I then  looked at his massive paws 
As he looked at my feet 
At   this time I noticed 
His very long sharp teeth

The bear let out a  mighty roar
And I began to tremble
As a thought ran thru my mind
Is it food that I resemble

I then looked down at my watch 
And said 
Is that the time , Oh my
You’ll have to excuse Mr Bear 
I really have to fly
