I would hold you in my paws,
And keep us warm in all the rain.
Dig holes for us to sleep in,
So we’d never be apart again.
I would find us lots of honey,
So life would always be sweet,
And lick and groom all my furs,
To impress everyone we meet.

I would roll myself in autumn leaves,
And give you the best hugs of your life.
I would sharpen my teeth on our enemies,
And grow nails, or claws, or knives.
I would sniff out all the insects,
That hurt us with their bites.
And sleep for all the eternity,
Otherwise known as lonely nights.

And if I were to catch you,
Alone with another bear.
I would slash and rip you open,
And crawl in to cry in the tear.
