I used to have a copy of a poem to attach to a home made teddy bear. One made from deceased grandparents clothing for the grandchildren. I only remember the last line, "Remember, she loved you too." I want to make two bears for my nieces and cannot find the poem. I hope someone has a copy and will forward it to me.
I found this poem online. I am not sure if it is the correct one or not. Hope this helps.
Burden Teddy Bear
I'm not a very fancy bear, I'm plain and rather small. Even so, someone who loves you Said I should come to call. I brought my favorite blanket, That I snuggle when I'm sad... It's a present from my Granny, Made for days when things seem bad. My Granny always told me, "Life's like a patchwork quilt... Just give Jesus all the pieces, And he'll make a pretty quilt." Sometimes I don't see the pattern, Sometimes he seems far away, Then I clutch my favorite blanket And I pray and pray and pray. Though I don't have all the answers, For I'm just a "Burden Bear" I've been sent here on a mission From someone who really cares. When you see me, please remember... You are in her thoughts and prayers.
