Build-A-Bear

To the Build-A-Bear Store
With granny in tow
Do you remember?

What was you four?
Say you remember
Only one or two

Well maybe  three
Still sitting upon
Granny's knee

When we opened
The door to
The place

Why it was a
Virtual zoo
Animals wasting

To be filled 
Waiting to be glued(sewn)
First you

Had to put a
Heart from
The very start

Then you
Pressed the
Button and 

Filled the
Animal with
Stuffing

Then she
Sewed him
Shut

But he had 
No clothes
You got

To pick them
Out from
500 different ones

You picked 
A camoflauged
Paratroopers

Outfit just
For your
Beautiful

Green frog
Which you
Named

Turtle
I remember
Too
