My Furry Friend
The background of this poem is one of a boy finding a furry animal in a tree (hence the name of the poem).
** I have a little furry friend
He lives up in a tree.
He likes to come and play sometimes
But he'll only play with me.
He likes to choose what games we play
And its always hide and seek.
But sometimes I can't find him
Then he gives a little squeak.
I like my little furry friend
I think I'll call him Fred!
We play together every day
Until it's time for bed.
Fred is a very special friend
He is what you want him to be.
But only I know what he is inside
That's why he'll only play with me.**
