Cuddly Buddy

You're not so cute anymore
Still I hold on to you
I can't throw and old friend away

Many hours spent
Close to my heart
We were together
Every night and day

My best friend
A true confidant
Talking with you
Made me feel okay

My Teddy Bear friend
A true lasting gift
The Cuddly Buddy
Who came my way

Richard; This is cute, if you were to throw him away, I bet you would cry, so keep him and give him to your first son. Thanks for sharing. I don't have a Teddy Bear. God bless. Lucilla
