I still miss her.
So do I.
You, me and her, such happy times.
The cheery threesome!
She used to cuddle us.
She talked to us too.
Told us secrets, things she didn’t want others to know.
Yes, funny things and naughty things as well!
We knew in time she’d leave.
We did, but we didn’t expect her to leave us behind.
I wonder if she still thinks about us.
I hope so.
She’ll have children of her own one day.
Yes, and she’ll bring them here to visit their grandparents.
Perhaps she’ll let them play with us!
If she can persuade them to put down their phones!
I don’t know what I’d do without you.
Don’t worry, I’m never letting go.
I wouldn’t let you if you tried!
Together forever.

Such a heartwarming story Keith. Thanks for joining in.
It appeared as soon as I saw the cute picture you gave us! Thanks, Sadje.
Many thanks 🙏🏼
Beautiful. Very lovely presentation, Keith for a very heartfelt and heart-warming piece!
Thanks so much, Suzette!
Aww, this is so sweet, Keith!
I’m pleased you liked it, Chris, thank you.
A poignant little tale. For better or for worse, Life brings change.
It does, for all of us. Thanks, Christine.
A lovely story Keith. Thanks.
Thanks so much, Denise.
I still have my teddy bear, My Guy is his name. He was given to me the day I was born. We are OLD.
Oh, how lovely!
So lovely Keith. I’ve always believed toys have their own secret life. I still have my bear, though he doesn’t growl anymore and Hubby gave him new paws a few years ago.
The stories they could tell! New paws, fabulous!
If I may?

So incredibly sweet, charming and melancholy. I love that you used the voice of these adorable cuddly friends who are no longer the constant companion of their now grown friend. A stunning write, Keith. 🧸
That’s so nice of you Nancy, thank you!
Loved until they are real, as the Velveteen Rabbit. This is a lovely story.
I’d forgotten about that lovely book! Cheers, Mimi.
Ohhh I love this so much. Tender moments…
I’m pleased, thank you!
You’re most welcome, always.
So sweet and moving, Keith.
Thank you, Indira.
Such a touching poem.

Equal parts cute & touching & amusing, Keith <3
