TEDDY BEARS!!!!

My latest obsession is over teddy bears, though now I only have two - Thingol and Sunkiss.
Anyway...The object of this contest is to choose a name from the list, and then write a poem about a teddy bear with that particular name. So, straight down to brass tacks -

RULES:
-Names from the list only are to be used. Names can be used by more than one person.
-Form of poem can be anytype, inculding StICky cApS, Dirty Pretty, rhyme, free verse, etc.
- NO erotica, sex, porn or anything of the like. Instant DQ for breaking this rule.

Now, for the list:
-Thaddeus
-Theodore
-Sammie (Sam)
-Shakespeare
-Anabel
-Dandy
-Spock
-Jefferson
-Virgie
-Celeste
-Levi
-Patches
-Tippicanoe
-Tyler
-Figwit
-Lupe
-Evie

[Hint: Humorous rhyming poems or limericks that make me smile will get serious consideration for shinies!] And possibly more shinies to come.

Let the contest begin!

    Dear sweet OrangeMarmalade

    Your contest has been delicious.
    Do you know that if one holds Orange Marmalade up to the sun, a little bit of the Light of God shines through!
