Tales From The Toy Box

0 Conversations

Welcome good reader and let us once more enjoy

A tale from the Toy Box, fun for every girl and boy.


Old Grandpa Bear


Old Grandpa Bear is getting very old

He's losing his fur and is beginning to feel the cold

Some stitching is lose, and he looks a little bit shabby

And if you wake him from a nap he can be a bit crabby


He was brought to the toy box many years ago

By a sweet little girl who left him when she began to grow

Old Grandpa Bear has been loved by many since

But anyone as good as the first we have yet to him convince


Old Grandpa Bear likes to talk about his past

How he wishes he could return and this time it would last

So he could talk and play with all those that are no more

We listen to him with understanding because that's what friends are for


And through his words, Old Grandpa becomes a different bear

More younger and contented, as in his past we share

It's a real shame that Old Grandpa's dreams are impossible to come true

That's the thing with growing old, there's not a thing anyone can do


So all you good children with oldsters in your life

Don't think of them as a burden, and moan about the trouble and strife

For abandonment is not just for youngsters a wicked crime

And remember getting old will come to us all, just give it a little time


The End
