A little Bear was calling

Calling for a mom

He really didn't know her yet

Because he wasn't born

 

He knew she was a loving one

Who needed to be loved

It wasn't very hard to see

Just where and who she was,

 

His love went out, among the stars

And came to rest on earth

A mommy strong and true was there

Who waited for his birth

 

A cloud passed over all, and then

The sun broke free and bright

Another life was out there

And his mommy was in sight

 

The other life was waiting

To join up with him, too

And the little Bear was happy

For he would love him too

 

His mommy was so beautiful

Her life was strong and full

Her friends and other Bears as well

All joined to make it true

 

The happiness and love he felt

Were now for more than one

A little People Person would, he knew

Soon come to need him too

 

His mommy was, he knew at last,

A mommy tried and true,

And his little heart near burst with love

For his mommy now loved two

 

The Bear stayed by his mommy's side

He was forever hers

Her new life was unfolding and,

Still included Teddy Brr's.
