To a family of bears.

They cried, «We want honey!»

And made such a hubbub

Their parents dubbed them

The Honey Bear Cubs.

They rapidly grew,

Their fur a light brown,

Teddy-bear cute,

Clumsy and round.

In a play fight,

Rolled on the grass

And squealed in delight!

«Let’s hunt for food.

They were. They snuck off,

Chortling and merry,

To hunt for honey

And juicy berries.

In the raspberry bushes

With rumbling tummies,

The bears ate berries.

Now they want honey!

But wait! They find pine cones,

Snatch them up and run

And throw them at each other.

The game is lots of fun!

Then finally arrived

At a clearing full of bees

And promptly smashed the hive.

Having gorged on honey,

They raced for the trees,

Stumbling over hummocks,

Escaping from the bees.

But the honey had a cost.
