Rags to Riches.

Missing image







Discarded...
abandoned with ear
torn and stuffing
poking out in gay abandon;
Forgotten by a once true
friend who swore never
to forget the comfort
and love that was offered freely
and greedily accepted...
now passed over for
better delights, a red car,
a dishy blonde...
~~~~
Now...
taken out of his hiding place
this small bear takes a gulp...
what is this person doing?
She is never going to stick that needle
where I think she is going to
stick it?...
Repaired and resplendent,
he struts his stuff and looks about;
Who is that reaching out?...a replica?
Looks the same, but smells different...
A boy child with chubby fingers
and a strong grip, just like his Pa...
and so the cycle begins again.

    warm

    This is a cute poem and obviously the perfect picture to complete the overall imagery. Perhaps, I am wrong but did you mean to write "blond" or "blonde". Either way the message is clear in this poem and it is a warm and wonderful poem. Thanks for sharing your work with us!
