Caring Little Teddy Bear

This time of year

Many gifts I will receive

This is the main reason

I don't want to grow up.

I like the hustle

And the long hours of play

Are days on end

Of mild prattle.

I love to see the tree,

the streets and the decorated houses

Seeing the circus clowns

I give intense laughs.

My eyes shine

Like a bright Christmas

This year what I want most

It is a caring little teddy bear.
