Ah! This is terrific entry. A lively tempo with great meter and rhyme. I love the lines:
"Blackbeard again!" I think with a chuckle.
"Oh where is my swash? Oh, where is my buckle?"
Good luck!

What a lovely poem. Nice bouncy rhythm and simple to follow, making it good to read aloud to children. But even though I'm not a child, I really enjoyed reading this and it gets my vote.
I hesitate about clicking on that six star rating, but why not do it? I've read a lot of poems on site and I do believe this is faultless in every way.
Wishing you luck in the contest.

All an adventure story, told through the eyes of a boy and his teddy bear. A delightful day to remember.
Cute and cuddly nursery poem!

Thank you. Expert? Mayne, or perhaps just a big kid.

Very cute children's bear story. I enjoyed reading the delightful fun of it, and I am sure that children would love this little poem, too.

'Teddy Bear' is a delightfully written piece. Not until reading this did I realize that a teddy bear's life was so exciting. It was a pleasure to both read and review a work of this standard.

How cute! Shades of Christopher Robin and Pooh Bear! My favorite lines:
"Blackbeard again!" I think with a chuckle.
"Oh where is my swash? Oh, where is my buckle?"
The picture was precious and fit your poem perfectly
Luck in the contest

This is a delightful poem about the Teddy's day we have here old sport.
My grand children here enjoyed this so much and asked me to read it another two times. Well done with this splendid work.
Good luck in the contest.
