Teddy's Letter

Oh, hush now, darling
and dry those eyes.
No use in crying,
my dear butterfly.

Now come to me
and give me a smile.
On my tummy,
lay your head for a while.

He didn't deserve you,
this I know.
He was a fool
for hurting you so.

But I'll always be here,
I promise you this.
There's nothing to fear,
my pretty little miss.

So hush now, dear
for you see, I care.
I'll always be near
signed, your teddy bear.
