Beryl Edmonds Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Written - 24th September 2023

Teddy Gets a New Outfit

Teddy looked sad, forlorn cold and bare
Sat on the bed with nothing to wear
So aunty got out her knitting pins
To knit Teddy some warm cosy things.

First came a jumper in shades of blue
Then some trousers, the same colour too
Also a scarf, a hat and some mitts
To please Pip, her young nephew that is.

Aunty knitted all day and all night
To please her Pip in the morning light
And to delight his Teddy bear too
They mean the world to her do those two.

Teddy looked dapper in his outfit
Pip was thrilled and gave aunty a kiss
Teddy thanked her with a cheeky wink
Aunty blushed, but she was tickled pink.

Alexis Y. September 24, 2023 at 3:12 PM WoW! Belle, You have penned such a delightful “ story” book. Good heartwarming ending. This would be a good picture book for children and “ children at heart”. Well done. Have a wonderful evening. Beryl Edmonds September 25, 2023 at 11:00 AM Thank you Alexis, will look into it… Belle Alexis Y. September 24, 2023 at 3:28 PM Hi Belle, Maybe you could go on YouTube or the Internet. You find out a lot of things on the internet and YouTube. I enjoyed your poem:-)Alexis Beryl Edmonds September 24, 2023 at 3:22 PM A page in a story book would be fine, I could get all my poems for children together in a book, but how to go about it I don’t know. Thank you Alexis. Belle-:)
