- My Teddy Bear Is Only Mine -

I have an old teddy bear
                                           and he is only mine
                                        My Teddy is old and worn
                                           but he is still so great
                            He is brown with a red ribbon around his neck
                                      The coat has been some rough
                                      He is not as smooth as before
                                         You can borrow my Teddy
                                           if you are sad and upset
                                            He is very good to hug
                            He's been my friend since the day I was born
                                              And he is only mine

My Teddy bear was a stuffed toy cat. I put a sun dress on her and dragged her every where... long past when I should have stopped... She's rather flat now... But I still have her tucked away.

I can so relate to how you feel about your Teddy Bear, Anne Lise. He's always been there for you. I enjoyed reading this...through the picture you've painted, I can picture him clearly, worn, but still, all yours! Great job! Good luck in the contest with this jewel!Love, Annalise

Thank you for letting me borrow your Teddy, I do appreciate that for when I'm quite sorrowful and sad! Today I'm just under the weather, I'm sick, though so I'll save your Teddy for when I need him! What a fabulous and intriguing poem here my friend! I truly loved reading this delightful piece, Great Work!!
