Perfect verse, Sunshine, great imagery. All the other creatures are safe from the bear while it spends the winter in a dormant state. good luck in the contest. Eve

Your poem reminded me of Ursa Major the Great Bear, while gazing skyward at night. I love this Anne-Lise! A gorgeous picture you have chosen also. xxoo

A very warm portrait. I once had a much loved T-shirt from Sequoia National park. "Walk bearfoot in the park" My brother once took a photo of one, until he realized that his camera was on mega-zoom. Kind wishes, Kai

Lovely in its simplicity, Anne-Lise. Luckily bears have thick fur to keep them warm, and probably this bear will be sleeping all through the cold season:) Hugs // paul

- The winter has been too warm for this thick fur ... sleep becomes restless ... the "teddy bear" thinks it's spring far too early, Paul :) - Thank you very much :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
