Teddy

Sitting in the corner

of a little girls room.

I am grey

with cute ears.

 

But the little girl
who owns me never comes to play.

She just has me there.

My Stuffings are falling out.
My fur is not brushed.

My clothes are never changed. 


Never smiled at.

Never picked up.
Never hugged.
Never even glanced at.
Never Loved.

    You can be very very very very very VERY proud of this poem because it is absolutely SPLENDID! I love it so much because it is precious and sad and loving, too. What could be better than that? POOR TEDDY BEAR! Maybe he was much loved at one time but the little girl's parents got divorced and she was sent to live with relatives. OH MY GOSH. That is so sad.

    lol

    Awww

    This free verse tugs at my heart. It toys with my emotions because even though I'm 23, I feel sorry for an abandoned, forlorn and forgotten stuffed animal! Actually, it's rather poignant considering it's about a teddy bear. You must love teddy bears to have written such a touching piece about one.
    Especially heart-rending:
    "My Stuffings are falling out.
    My fur is not brushed.

    My clothes are never changed.


    Never smiled at.

    Never picked up.
    Never hugged.
    Never even glanced at.
    Never Loved."

    I hope someone rescues the poor little fellow and gives him some love!
