    Sorry you disapprove. Once I start a poem, I have no control over where it leads me. Wishing you and ALL your entrants the very best.

    Deep in the hundred acre wood
    where Christopher Robin plays
    You'll find the enchanted neighborhood
    of Christopher's childhood days
    A donkey named Eeyore is his friend
    and Kanga and little Roo
    There's Rabbit and Piglet and there's Owl,
    but most of all Winnie the Pooh

    Winnie the Pooh
    Winnie the Pooh
    Tubby little cubby all stuffed with fluff
    He's Winnie the Pooh
    Winnie the Pooh
    Willy nilly silly old bear

    The wonderful thing about Tiggers
    Is Tiggers are wonderful things
    Their tops are made out of rubber
    Their bottoms are made out of springs
    They're bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy
    Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!
    But the most wonderful thing about Tiggers
    Is I'm the only one

    The wonderful thing about Tiggers
    Is Tiggers are wonderful chaps
    They're loaded with vim and with vigor
    They love to leap in your laps
    They're bouncy, trouncy, flouncy pouncy
    Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN
    But the most wonderful thing about Tiggers
    Is I'm the only one.

    Tiggers are wonderful fellahs.
    Tiggers are awfully sweet.
    Everyone elses is jealous,
    And thats why I repeat...

    Christopher Robin and I walked along
    Under branches lit up by the moon
    Posing our questions to Owl and Eeyore
    As our days disappeared all too soon
    But I've wandered much further today than I should
    And I can't seem to find my way back to the Wood

    So help me if you can
    I've got to get back
    To the House at Pooh Corner by one
    You'd be surprised
    There's so much to be done
    Count all the bees in the hive
    Chase all the clouds from the sky
    Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh

    Winnie the Pooh doesn't know what to do
    Got a honey jar stuck on his nose
    He came to me asking help and advice
    And from here no one knows where he goes
    So I sent him to ask of the Owl if he's there
    How to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear

    It's hard to explain how a few precious things
    Seem to follow throughout all our lives
    After all's said and done I was watching my son
    Sleeping there with my bear by his side
    So I tucked him in, I kissed him and as I was going
    I swear that the old bear whispered
    "Boy welcome home"

    Believe me if you can
    I've finally come back
    To the House at Pooh Corner by one
    What do you know
    There's so much to be done
    Count all the bees in the hive
    Chase all the clouds from the sky
    Back to the days of Christopher Robin
    Back to the ways of Christopher Robin
    Back to the days of Pooh

    :~:

    Gotta get up, I gotta get goin'
    I'm gonna see a friend of mine
    He's round and he's fuzzy
    I love him because
    He's just Pooh Bear, Winnie the Pooh Bear

    Lookin' for fun, chasin' some hunny bees
    Pooh Bear I know he's out there
    Rumblee tumblee, climin' a hunny tree
    Fun never ends for us, we're so adventurous
    Least every now and again

    And when we're alone and there's nobody home
    It's nice to be able to count on a friend
    Like Pooh Bear, Winnie the Pooh Bear
    Wherever you go, oh won't you take me please
    Pooh Bear, I gotta be there

    It's me and it's you
    Silly old Winnie the Pooh . . .

    :~:

    Welcome to you, and how do you do,
    Everybody's wating here at Pooh Cornner,
    Waiting for you, and Winnie the Pooh,
    To have a happy-ooptey-poo time!

    Gloomy old Eeyore nodds his head, he worries away the time,
    (Thank's for noticin' me)
    Owl makes his speeches long and loud, without any reason or rhyme (Now I remember my Aunt Matilda on my Uncle's side, my Uncle Orville that is, who often said to me...)

    While Rabbit is busy puling leaves, his carrots grow tall & sweet,
    Kanga is making pies and cakes, and Little Roo's waiting to eat.
    And Piglet forever cleaning house, is doing his daily sweep (whatta whatta mess)
    Tigger keeps bouncing up & down, protecting his Tiggery leap!

    And here comes Winnie the Pooh, Winnie the Pooh, Tubby-Little-Cubby all stuffed w/ fluff,
    He's Winnie the Pooh, Winnie the Pooh, willy nilly silly old bear.

    Wel-Wel-Welcome to you, I'm Winnie the Pooh,
    Everybody's waiting here at Pooh Corner, waiting for you,
    And me Winnie the Pooh! To have a happy oopty-poo time!

    Let's have a happy-ooptey-poo time! (Hoo Hoo Hoo Hooooo!
    )
    pooh is fantasy right
