Bears by Fred Alstrom

:

Bears

Roam in the forests and tundra

in search of berries and

munch on rotton fish and

are scary.

When I see a bear

it reminds me of a teddy bear

with the same fuzzy hair of a teddy bear

the same glassy brown eyes

and the button nose

and the same cauliflour ears.

But sometimes bears

mess up your camp and

steal your grub

and try to get away with it.

Sometimes they are very sneaky.
