Teddybear Dreams

My teddy-bear stayed in toyland when I out-grew childish things He stayed there in carefree moments and lives on in make believe dreams Alone on the bed he ponders He heaves up his shoulders and wonders Looking and longing for childhood that can never return again. Suzanne Delaney

This reminds me of Toy Story... you know the pink teddy waiting to be played with again. This was perfectly worded... no unnecessary words. And I love how this was told from the opposite the end... from the toy that used to be so much more, but isn't because it was only fueled by the child's imagination. Great work!

Dear Xegrakio POETESS, S-N, S U Z. I had a teddybear once for about 2 months. I left her in the house I had moved from with my little sister, Kim. I never seen her or Kim again; but I know she wasn't alone. This is a Great story from Youth. Superb Quill. I LOVE YOU ALWAYS and FOREVER YOUR Loyal Poet, S-P, and Friend...HG
