My Teddy Bear

For Bedtime stories describing your teddy bear.

A bear so special, so sweet,

A bear my grandmother gave to me

She gave it to me when I was born

Because without my dad my heart was torn

I always held my teddy bear tight

It gave me assurance that everything would be alright,

My teddy bear so sweet and nice

I never had to think twice,

That teddy bear was used for the best

Now it has been put to rest

With my grandmother,

So goodbye my wonderful people

In my heart you both remain equal

Author's Note

The bear my grandmother gave me was pink and it is now in her casket.

That was a nice gift for your grandmother to have with her. Thank you for the sad and beautiful poem. I have many items from my Grandmother. Their value is everything to me. A strong ending to a excellent poem.
