For Chris

Have you ever seen a Teddy frown? No?
Neither have I.
Teddy’s are the only ones that know
What to do when you sigh.

They know how to pick you up when you’re down -
They welcome you with open arms
And they will chase away every frown -
Those are a Teddy Bear’s charms.

Teddy bears have the warmest hearts
To dry your tears when you cry,
But I think the best part
Are those kind, forgiving eyes.

A Teddy Bear will love you,
- Just like those above -
No matter what you do,
You will always have their love.

The world should be filled with Teddy Bears
Because they’re so loving and kind;
Then the world’s only care
Would be of friends you can find.

Sometimes everything grows dark and cold,
And you forget about those who care,
And you feel life’s getting old . . .
That’s when I’m glad for Teddy Bears.

~Dedicated to my dear friend Chris P. - who always has a smile for every occasion.~
