THREE BLUE BEARS

Three blue bears have acome to town;
They're wandering now all up and down.
Don't you hear their grumbles and growlS
and squeaks?
It's enough to make all brave men sneaks
"Those yellow curls on the big bear look
Just like Marshall's, dear" said mother
and shook
Where she stood behind father, looking
And trying to see what the bears were
about
"And wouldn't you think that was Lar
rie's grin
II you didn't know twas bears blue
skin?"
whispered father, clasping mothers waist
Lest sho'd be scared at being chased.
ooh. that wee little bear that stumbles so
Is lust like Allison who scarce can go"
Cried mother under her breath quite low.
And father said, Indeed quite So
Then those three bears, upon my word,
Laughed just like little boys you've heard
Were Marshall and Lawrence they
confessed,
And Ally, TOO" said father. "as am
blessed!'
Growls turned TO gggles in a hurry,
"'Twas our new nightles so warm and
That made you think us real live bears
The biggest blue bear Of all declares
Were YOU scared?" the three demanded
When IN bed they We're safely landed
Said mother, "'Twas am awful fright
And father shook as he said GOOD night"
