A Bear of a Problem
A BEAR OF A PROBLEM
Mother bear has said no climbing trees
in the woods
But she climbs higher than little bear
ever could
It's sometimes a good exercise this
climbing around
There are occasions when you're safer
up off the ground
Of course when climbing high up in a tree
A bear never knows what the next
encounter will be
A small bear advancing near a bee hive
Should have stayed below before here
he arrived
But aroma of honey caught his attention
Except one thing mom forgot to mention
These small creatures called bees
Have needles in their little rears
And a sting from them will bring a baby
bear to tears
And then the speed of this baby bear's
descent
Would match an Olympian's best
all time sprint
