Little Ted

 

I’ve got a tiny teddy bearBasil is his nameHe’s isn’t very famousHe’s got no claim to fameHe hasn’t been around the worldNor climbed the highest peakHe hasn’t got a proper voiceSo he can never speakBut, late at night when we’re in bedHe cuddles up real tightAnd gives his beary growl to sayThat everything’s alright

Anna, a friend of mine was

Anna, a friend of mine was describing his boss, who i know quite well, as a bit of an tyrant and I said "Basil, an ogre? nah he's a teddy bear". As for getting published, methinks that is a long long way off if at all, it seems that you and I are voices in the wilderness as not everyone appears to appreciate my way of doing things. As always your comments are a most welcome morale boost. Merry Xmas John
