Teddy You're everywhere wardrobes, boxes and bed tall, fat, thin I love my cuddly bears some with such cute mishapen heads I have memories of each of your days and they bring back smiles of delight with 'you' it was a game consistently played unfair contest as you are won without a fight I remember when I used to cry going back to my childhood years when hugs were in such short supply and touching your fur would calm my fears Nightly I change you round contented with you by my side so that I can sleep safe and sound my dreams in you I trust and confide ------------------ You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. [This message has been edited by RainbowGirl (edited 10-01-1999).] |

Uk: You mean you want to be soaked every now and then?..  HUGS Pufalove: You as well.. I truly love my bears, there's something so utterly soft about them,I can't resist a hug...I often wonder if they come out and play at night like you hear in children's fables.. only kidding..*g*HUGS ------------------ You give but little when you give of your possessions.

Who among us didn't have a teddy bear (Balladeer had sheep, we know that). I loved the simple beauty of this...make me long for cookies in bed..snuggled in my jammies, Ted E. Bear by my side...  |

Yes, I used to have a collection. (a bit silly for one my age)...over 500. They all had names, too. That's what happens when you have no children. They took up so much space that I donated them to Toys for Children at Christmas. Again, I really loved this one. |

I did NOT have sheep. I had THREE teddy bears with me...Momma bear, Poppa bear and Baby bear by a previous marriage. From what I hear, PDV, you're still baring, er, bearing it nightly. Terrific poem, Rainbow |

Rainbow...I happen to have a big fluffy Teddy Bear that sleeps with me each night (day) wonder if I can give it up in November ------------------ It is better to be silent and be considered a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt. |

GROOOOOOSSSSSSS! Girly poem! LOL, just teasing rainbow, but I admit I would rather have a woman I called teddy bear, than a teddy bear called woman! Hugs! |

This was great, we have a big fat 4' teddy bear that I got for my husband for one of our anniversary's. I had it delivered to the house with a bow around it, he sits in a corner watching over us. I also have a 5' Monkey named Sport that is a passanger in my van. Kind of silly, but no where else to put him right now, so he rides around with me. |
