Teddy Bear Affair : Friendship Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann



A Teddy Bear Affair

 

By Paul McCann

 

 

 

 

There’s  Teddys on the road , Teddys on the bridge  ,

Teddy’s in the pub and Teddy’s in the fridge ,

There’s Teddys on the shelf , Teddys on the skids ,

Teddys with no friends and Teddys with no kids .

 

 

A Teddy bear can be a him or a her .

For me Teddy has been a one long affair .

This is the story of the Teddy I know

who passed me by way one day and we said hello .

 

 

I’m just a little lost lonely Teddy bear .

I don’t have a home does any body care .

I wish that  I had some one to hold me tight  .

Its awfully cold and scary here tonight .

 

 

I’ve know what its like to be without a home  .

Its sad when your left in the world all alone  .

I’d be happy for you to come to my place

With any others from the Teddy Bear race .

 

 

Teddy stared crying and the tears fell down

The tears touched my heart as they fell to the ground ,

 

To get ahead me and Ted shared a bed .

We installed internet and phone , me and Ted .

As the days passed by our relationship grew ,

Teddy’s never leave they get attached to you .

 

Teddy and me we love to play the guitar .

And we like driving around town in the car

We like to have picnics on a Summers day

We enjoy bush walks and finding games to play  .

 

I’ve not regretted one day in all these years

I’ve shared secrets with Ted and even some tears .

When I had to break the news about my wife ,

Teddy was quite jealous of her in my life .

 

When I told my wife of Ted she was in shock ,

Then the next thing she began to run amok  .

Teddy looked at her as she began to shout ,

She went wild and started throwing things about .

 

 

 

Just how long has this been going on she said .

I looked in her eyes and said

“What me and Ted ?”

Ok I know it was our honeymoon night

And Teddy was in the Bed but that’s all right .

 

So when she came back to bed she would not speak

That was until the waterbed sprung  leak .

She screamed at poor Teddy who was soaking wet

I lifted Teddy up and watched the TV set .

 

She left the room and not with a happy heart

Something went wrong and had broken us apart  .

I often look at Ted on those lonely nights

And think how lucky we are not to have fights .

 

Teddy’s never left and I know never will .

She’s just a big softie and she loves me still

Now that Teddy knows that someone out there cares ,

the whole house is filled with little teddy bears .
