Notes About The Poem

Cute Black Bear

Cute black bear has a perfect behind and her manicured paws are so kind When she sits on a chair all the male bears just stare - her sheer beauty, it just blows their mind! A friend has given me a little black bear as a replacement for the soft toy we used to have in my husband’s car – I hope she lasts as long as our old ‘guard dog’! https://www.poetrysoup.com/poem/farewell_old_friend_888761 05~15~17

We will never be able to replace the original soft toy - he is wrapped in muslin in the glove box of the car - we have several new soft toys but cream puff is sorely missed. i did find one on the web recently but the seller wanted an awful lot of money and with postage it would have been about £50 so we are just keeping our memories - its so odd that my hubby especially was so attached to this toy which I'd had since my school days and he adopted him for his car - what are we like lol:-) hugs jan xx

Thanks Paul:-) I now have a 'zoo' of soft toys in my car as we have tried to find a replacement for cream puff - I did find one on the internet but with P & P it would have been over £50 so we have black bear and a robin I have called 'victor' after victor Buhagiar's avatar:-) hugs Jan xx

We have black bears in Honey Island Swamp..not too far from New Orleans. They are cute, and yours sounds like a little diva. I think you should give her a name. Nice writing, Jan.

Your "friend" gave you a replacement "toy" that you then personified as a cute young mammal in a limerick? Tsk tsk, Jan. Poetry Soup is supposed to be family friendly.

I had the other toy from a school friend and my hubby had it as a 'guard dog' until the ravages of old age took their toll and it is irreparable - it is tied up in muslin in the glove box now as hubby couldn't bare to throw it away!:-) hugs Jan xx
