The Hairy Bear <br /> <br />The hairy bear is a scary bear <br />And dwells amidst the palms. <br />He picks his teeth with his knife and fork <br />And hasn't many charms. <br /> Should you perchance to walk <br /> Through bushes shrubs and trees. <br /> Stay silent as you pass the palms <br /> In case he hears or sees. <br />You may feel your neck hairs rise <br />And sense his red eyes following you. <br />And as you pass close by the palms <br />He leaps out with a BOO! <br /> He really wants to scare you <br /> to make you run and hide. <br /> From his fiery eyes and flashing teeth <br /> And jaws all open wide. <br />But the hairy bear, the scary bear <br />Isn't all that bad. <br />For truth to tell, he's cowardly <br />It's really very sad. <br /> What he's really scared of <br /> Is not the tiger or giraffe. <br /> But people who tell funny jokes, <br /> To make him laugh and laugh. <br />So if you go out to the woods, <br />A joke book wouldbe dandy. <br />But best of all a feather <br />willcome in really handy. <br /> When a scary bear starts laughing <br /> He starts to lose his hair. <br /> For when he shakes it all falls out <br /> until he's nearly bare. <br />He gets all hot and bothered <br />and is not at all impressed, <br />by the thought of people seeing him <br />in his shorts and undervest. <br /> So don't forget, next holidays <br /> When it's warm and sunny weather. <br /> Be ready for the scary bear <br /> With with a joke book and a feather. <br /> <br /> Adrian Yates.<br /><br />Adrian Yates<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-hairy-bear/
