Kochi's Bear

by Stephen Watson

This toy bear is almost human;
That’s evident to see.
He loves to play games with a young girl
By the sweet name of Kochi.

He cries a great deal late at night
When she's fast asleep after yawning;
Because he longs to join his friend again;
Not wait until the morning.

These two are meant to be together
Like the apple and the tree;
And although Kochi may outgrow him;
He’ll never leave her memory.

Comments on this Poem

Kochi's bear would have become elder now.Kochi will be bigger now. But bear's memory left a permanent effect of childhood upon her. The childhood can not be returned.
Those toys can not be given that pleasure but those recollections make a permanent place in one's life.
That is the main thing.Thank you so much Stephen Watson Sir.

Thanks, Stephen.

Very kind of you to write a poem on Kochi's Bear :-)
