Furry Bear, by A.A. Milne


One of my favorite poems of all time...
If I were a bear, and a big bear too,
I shouldn't much care if it froze or snew;
I shouldn't much mind if it snowed or friz--
I'd be all fur-lined with a coat like his!

For I'd have fur boots and a brown fur wrap,
and brown fur knickers and a big fur cap.
I'd have a fur muffle-ruff to cover my jaws,
and brown fur mittens on my big brown paws.
With a big brown furry-down up to my head,
I'd sleep all winter in a big fur bed.
~by A.A. Milne
