Teddy Dog

My teddy dog
from the
Post office in Germany
light bronze
with a dark walnut patch

Velvety and puffy
cozy and tender-hearted
I feel contented and
secure around him

The length of my arm
and the width of my head,
made of soft
fluffy cotton
He looks depressed and
bewildered
but makes me feel
glad
I love my teddy dog
