i have a handsome polar bear




I have a handsome polar bear
Who only wears a fancy scarf.
I love him best than horse or mare,
I love him most than cow or calf.

He’s boisterous and good-humoured,
Although at times angry he looks.
He drinks much wine (it’s been rumoured),
And he likes fishes, cakes and books.
