Sweet Dreams

When days grow short and skies less sunny

that’s when bears hibernate.

They go to sleep and dream of honey;

lots of honey on a plate.

They dream of a magic kind of tree

upon which honey grows

without bothersome honey bees

to sting them on the nose.

They dream of honey sandwiches,

all sticky and runny and sweet

then they do their favourite thing which is

to eat and eat and eat.
