Once upon a time there was <br />A little bear named Teddy Fuzz <br />At night he’d hate to go to bed <br />“I wonna’ play tonight, ” he said. <br />“Okay, my son, it’s up to you <br />For I’ll not tell you what to do. <br />“Stay up all night, ” said Teddy’s mother <br />But don’t wake up your little brother.” <br />He built a house with tinker toys <br />He played with all his soldier boys <br />With blocks and cars and boats and such <br />He took his ball and played some catch. <br />But pretty soon Teddy’s eyes grew faint <br />He dropped the brush as he tried to paint <br />So Teddy climbed in Mama’s bed <br />Upon her shoulder he laid his head. <br />“I can’t stay up, you’re right, ” he said. <br />“Could you carry me to my bed? ”<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-bear-named-teddy-fuzz/
