WQWWC #51: Toys/Play
Furry old bear
old as me
sat in his favourite spot
Pondering what’s for tea
as he follows his owner
down the stairs
Honey , Milk or Chocolate
perfect proposition for
afternoon treats
Teddy bear picnics
on summer mornings – favourite
time of day

The bear and the eskimo
stared at each other
by the entrance to the igloo
While the eskimo feared he’d be lunch
he needn’t have worried
The bear just wanted out of the cold

Nothing better served than fresh fish!

A bit rough round the edges
but he’s still as loveable as ever
now sat in the corner with the newer toys
a compendium of memories from days gone by
companions and confidante
when the darkness falls
or the ghosts come to town unexpectedly
best thing of all – he’ll always be there when you need him
Salford, 27th July 2020
Winter warmer ?
fills the tum at any time of year
bringing a glow of contentment
with every loving spoonful
tasty treat at any time of day
perfect with honey, cinnamon, or even chocolate
keeps your “inner bear” happy
and brings a glow from your nose to your toes

Matters of persuasion
were easy for Mrs Polar Bear
But on this occasion
No matter how hard she tried
the seal wouldn’t come out
of the larder
“Sorry Kids….its Fish for tea again!”
What’s that noise
i hear coming from down the stair ?
someone will have do be aware
everyone knows it can’t be a bear
their sleeping on pillows or on nearest chair
so tip-toeing down stairs little toes do creep
to find their dad on the sofa sound asleep

Sat by his cave , somewhere in the zoo
a relative of your old pal – winnie the pooh
climbing his branches , carefully placed
and giving his luncheon a bit of a taste
looks out at the crowd like it’s a TV
and then he goes off – in search of honey

Poem or Prose in 28 Words – Okay!!!!
Polar bears are partying
under nights light show
the snow is twinkling
with various different colours
moving about on ice
like the mirrorball chasing
the disco floor beams
A poem , written on a visit to Edinburgh zoo, with my nephews and the rest of the family
I went to the zoo today,
Saw a small elephant play.
A Tiger with stripes and great big paws
and a Lion with Mane and great big claws!
but that wasn’t everything i saw
Today
Went to the Zoo today,
Saw a spotted leopard sleeping in a bush
as a black panther hid among the brush
and cubs with their mums in such a rush
Today
I went to the zoo today,
and saw the chimps and monkeys at play
Gorillas on trees, swatting off fleas
and Marmosets hanging off branches by their knees!
Today
I Went to the zoo today,
saw buzzards and other birds of prey
‘gainst grand scottish hills
enjoying their scraps and swoops and spills
as i ate my lunch from a restuaurant grill
today
I went to the zoo today,
and saw other animals play.
Saw a Golden Bear, swinging from a tree,
and Monkeys and Gibbons eating their tea,
(Loads of cheeky Chimpanzees!)
and Penguins underwater – like in the sea
swimming past windows – and looking at me
Today
