Thaddeus and Theodore Teddyski,
two bearbrothers of Polish descent.
Always playing jokes, they never relent,
at others expense, it fills them with glee.
Rivals Sammy and Shakespeare Blunderbear,
Koala's from a couple beds over.
Went and took Thad & Theo's, 4 leaf clover,
it's about time that those two got their share.
On the other side of the room, up high,
on a shelf, above the small vanity.
Are the newlywed couple (rather shy),
country bears, Anabel Ruth & Dandy.
They just bought the old country store you see,
from Jefferson Buisnessbear & his brother Virgie.
Got tired of getting chewing gum in their hair,
the Cub's these days just dont seem to care.
Celeste & Levi BettyCrockerBear,
have run the local bakery for years.
Took over from Patches, Levi's mother,
where even to this day she cashiers.
You can't leave out Tippicanoe & Tyler II,
lawyer bears that sit on the nightstand.
They are always keeping an eye out,
so room dynamics wont get out of hand.
Only trouble so far, was with Bearsotted Figwit,
who was found at noon, passed out on the floor.
Judge Lupe Lawbear, threw the book at the poor lad,
B.A.D.D.* made sure he was locked behind barred doors.
Evie Bearlicious is the rooms claim to fame,
sitting in the center of a well made bed.
Taking a Gold in the Bearolympic games,
didn't let adulation go to her head.
Interviews, talk shows, David Bearman,
all the attention that it did bring.
She did not let it all get out of hand,
She took her Gold, In... Listening.
*B.A.D.D. = Bears Against Drunk & Disorderly

Beary bright write! Can I order one dozen red velvet cupcakes from the Bettycrockerbears bakery?
-
Oh, Yes!
Lovely penning!
My favorite part is this:
"You can't leave out Tippicanoe & Tyler II,
lawyer bears that sit on the nightstand.
They are always keeping an eye out,
so room dynamics wont get out of hand."
I was hoping someone would write about Tippicanoe and Tyler, too!

Very cute!
Incidently, Polish surnames usually end in '-ski' not '-sky,' despite similar pronunciation. A mere technicality. I happen to know because my father is Lithuanian. But very cute limerick!

Oh, I have only just begun. All of them will make an appearance.
