My Teddy bear

When I was a child I had a teddy bear His fur was brown and he was filled with horses hair 

He had black nose and two blue glass eyes
My Teddy bear was given to me as a big suprise 

I lost my teddy bear one time and I cried tears of pain
Thinking I had lost my Teddy bear and I wouldn't see him again 

I looked everywhere for my Teddy bear my companion my best friend 

I promised myself if I couldn't find my Teddy bear 
My search would never end 

Years have passed and I never found my teddy bear is my teddy by himself all alone somewhere 

Maybe someone found him and my teddy bear they decided to keep 

Maybe my teddy bear is helping their child to go to sleep 

Teddy wherever you are I hope you had a life of joy

To me teddy bear you were my friend not just my teddy bear toy

Seriously Paul this is so lovely and heartfelt! I am sure your teddy bear was found by another child and it brought them the same joy! Debx
