(for Sue Reynolds on her birthday)
The day you turned 2
Paddington made his debut,
a stowaway from darkest Peru,
the tag on his jacket reading,
Please look after this bear,
with the sweet face of one who
tries so hard to get things right,
like you, dear Sue, who does
try, who does get things so right,
whose great heart, like that
of the little bear with the red
wellies, does good and more
good, again and again, thank
you for looking after this bear,
after me, with so much love.

Awwwwww!!! I am so touched – I don’t think I’ve ever had a poem written about me for my birthday! (And definitely not a poem linking me and Paddington!!).
Thank you so much!
You are most welcome, my friend! Hoping you have a brilliant day with lots of adoration from folks (and a special doggie) who love you… like me!
