The bear had a day,
was run off his feet,
and felt he needed
something sweet.
He looked around
and was very sad -
the pantry was empty,
no treats to be had.
He went next door
to borrow some jam,
but they had none
and offered him yam.
He stopped by the hive
and asked for some honey.
The bees were so sorry -
the batch was still runny.
He decided to settle
for cookie or cake.
The bakery was closed,
it was time for their break.
He looked to the moon
and said pretty please -
can I at least have
a small wedge of cheese?
The man in the moon
thought him a nutter -
who has cheese
without a cracker?
The bear was so tired
thought he might cry,
should he go home
or continue to try?
He was heading back
when he met a bear
with a big bag of candy
he was happy to share!
The day turned out well
because in the end
our bear got his treat
and made a new friend.

Welcome back, love the colors in your basket, so pretty!
I do understand how the bear feels, I try to keep goodies as I call them out of the house so that I am not tempted but then there are those days that I just go looking in hopes there will be something to have, glad he found a friend to share :)
Welcome home, Amalia! I've missed your poems and your pretty things. What a nice knitted basket.
That knit basket is lovely, and it's so fun to read a new poem from you!
Glad you are back with a lovely basket and lovely words !
Have a nice weekend !

Aww, I'm glad the bear made a friend and got something sweet. I was starting to feel frustrated with him.
Great post! Thank you for sharing with us this week at https://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2018/09/a-bit-of-bluegrass.html
Your knitted basket is so cute. How creative to knit a basket and put all your yarn in there. Great idea, Amalia.

What a beautiful basket! And so glad the bear got a treat---I get those same cravings :)
This made me think of Winnie the Pooh. Have you seen the Christopher Robin movie? Fabulous!
I like the mix of yarn you've used. Makes me think of ice-cream! Anna x

Cute poem and the basket is wonderful...love how you got it to a stand up circle. WOW!
What a lovely story!
Nice to see you back:) lovely basket!
Cute basket! I have a sweet tooth so I can relate to the bear's frustration when he couldn't satisfy his craving.
Your creativity abounds in each and every poem you write! Love them all and your knitted basket!
...what, no jam!
so creative.
love it
The knitted basket is so pretty...
and the poem is delightful. I read it slowly, trying to "taste" every word and rhyme, but at the same time anxious to know if the bear will find anything. Fortunately he did!!!
Hi Amalia,

Have a nice time,
Christine
