Toby Teddybear

Bittersweet tears of sorrow

land on her pillowcase.

She was heartbroken as her

teddy bear was missing.

She looked everywhere.

Under the bed.

Inside the wardrobe

where her toys

are kept at night.

She asked her mum and dad

and little sister. Did they see

Toby her teddy bear.

They all said No.

They even helped her

look for Toby.

But with no joy.

Mandy was sad and missing

Toby.

As she lay in bed cuddling

Dolly her substitute friend for the

night.
