Teddy Bear's Lament
Bumpity-bump through mud and snow, I followed everywhere you'd go, But bruising bumps could not erase, That silly grin upon my face.
Thumps and hugs and loving deeds
Are all that any Teddy needs. Then one day you went to play
And left me all alone to stay,
To wait with patience by myself
Collecting dust upon your shelf. Now I sit here in despair, A very lonely Teddy Bear.
I hope that, having read my poem, You'll soon come back to take me home. 'Cause loneliness is just enough, To break my woolly heart of fluff.
By Tim Price
A Boy's Verse: To My Teddy
When I was only four days old
You came to live with me
And gave me all the love you hold
Quite unreservedly.
Oh Teddy Bear I still love thee
As much as I did then,
Though now we both are forty-three
Anon.
From Pelissier's Follies- 1909
I wish I had a Teddy Bear
To sit upon my knee.
I'd take him with me everywhere,
To cuddle up with me.
I'd scorn young men,
No lover then
My lot in life should share,
They might go to Jericho
If I'd a Teddy Bear.
Egbert and Me
At night when I lie fast asleep
My teddy, Egbert, wakes,
And sits upon my counterpane
Until the morning breaks.
He likes to see I get my rest,
For everybody's sakes,
So if the pirates smash the door
To steal away my toys
He fights them off with dirk and sword
But very little noise.
And if the one-eyed bogey-man
Comes breaking down the wall
He scares him off by looking fierce
But makes no sound at all.
And if the wailing ghost flies down
The chimney like a bird
He blows him back with mighty breaths
That simply can't be heard.
When, after slumbering, peacefully
I open up my eyes,
I see the sun come shining in
And find to my surprise
That Egbert's lost another ear
Upon some enterprise.
But when I ask him what he's done
He just looks smug and wise...
My Teddy Bear
(Written to commemorate the 75th Birthday of the Teddy Bear)
He sits upon his pillowed throne
A joyous smile upon his face.
And though his ears may seem outgrown
He carries them with pride and grace.
He's never cross or quick to carp
A friend in need is he to me.
When human tongues are mean and sharp
My Teddy gives me sympathy.
To him I always bare my soul
He lifts me when I'm feeling low.
And when I brag and miss my goal
He never says, 'I told you so.'
My friends many titter gleefully
And some may tease, but I don't care.
I hope that I will never be
Too old to love my Teddy Bear.

The Teddy Bear's Picnic
The meadow's green, the flowers sweet,
and we have many good things to eat.
Ah, what a day! What lovely air!
How nice to be a Teddy Bear!
Pass the bread and pass the cheese.
Be sure to taste the chicken please.
Have an apple, plum or pear!
Such fun to be a Teddy Bear!
Bert's got his sailor shirt,
and Mae and Sue look awfully pert
in matching hats! I say! Such flair!
How fine to be a Teddy Bear!
"This afternoon I shall recall
for all my life," says Tiz to Paul.
"A perfect time without a care!"
How grand to be a Teddy Bear!
