John Healey Poet Rhyme

Teddy Bears On Holiday

Teddy Bears on holiday.

The Teddy Bears marched one and all
Smartly through the Hotel Hall.
With Ted in front Freddy last
They raised a smile from all they passed.

“Look lively now” was Lionel’s cry
And moving quicker they did try.
Rupert shouted “Feet are sore”
Lisa told him “Not much more”

Out to the sunshine 5 did go
So smart they looked it made a show.
Upon the bellowed “Stop” command
They all stood still held hand in hand.

So Lionel “What’s to do for fun
Whilst we have this warming sun”
“A water game might suit the bill
With buckets, foam and slopping hill.”

An hour spent with plastic sheeting
Pegs and rope and planning meeting.
A slide was made both smooth and turning
Liquid need, stop the burning.

Water down, poured from the top
All stepped on, no chance to stop.
A pile was made with 5 bears twisted
With screams and giggles, bottoms blistered.

Freddy first to wiggle free
Then Rupert wrapped round Lionel’s knee.
Lisa, Ted were both upended
Knickers shown, no one offended.

That day they all had such a game
To stop and tidy, such a shame.
But memories, once made like this
We keep forever, simply bliss.
