'HERE LIES A TREE'

Here lies a tree which Owl (a bird)
Was fond of when it stood on end,
And Owl was talking to a friend
Called me(in case you hadn't heard)
When something Oo occurred.

For lo! the wind was blusterous
And flattened out his favorite tree;
And things looked bad for him and we -
Looked bad, I mean, for he and us -
I've never known them wuss.

Then Piglet (PIGLET) thought a thing:
"Courage!" he said.  "There's always hope.
I want a thinnish piece of rope.
Or, if there isn't any, bring
A thickish piece of string."

So to the letter box he rose,
While Pooh and Owl said "Oh!" and "Hum!"
And where the letters always come
(Called "LETTERS ONLY") Piglet sqoze
His head and then his toes.

O gallant Piglet (PIGLET)! Ho!
Did Piglet tremble?  Did he blinch?
No, no, he struggled inch by inch
Through LETTERS ONLY, as I know
Because I saw him go.

He ran and ran, and then he stood
And shouted "Help for Owl, a bird,
And Pooh, a bear!" until he heard
The others coming through the wood
As quickly as they could.


"Help-Help and Rescue!" Piglet cried,
And showed the others where to go.
(Sing ho! for Piglet (PIGLET) ho!)
And soon the door was opened wide,
And we were both outside!

Sing ho! for Piglet, ho!
Ho!

POEM BY EEYORE - SIGNED BY EVERYONE

Christopher Robin is going.
At least I think he is.
Where?
Nobody knows.
But he is going -
I mean he goes
(
To rhyme with "knows")
Do we care?
(
To rhyme with "where")
We do
Very much.
(
I haven't got a rhyme for that "is" in the second line yet. 
Bother.
)
(
Now I haven't got a rhyme for bother. Bother.)
Those two bothers will have to rhyme with each other
Buther.
The fact is this is more difficult
than I thought,
I ought -
(
Very good indeed!)
I ought
To begin again,
But it is easier to stop.
Christopher Robin, good-bye,
I
(
Good)
I
And all your friends
Sends -
I mean all your friends
Send -
(
Very awkward this, it keeps going wrong.)
Well, anyhow, we send
Our love
END.


WARM AND SUNNY SPOT
THOUGHTS

I lay on my chest
And I thought it best
To pretend I was having a evening rest;
I lay on my tum
And I tried to hum
But nothing particular seemed to come
My face was flat
On the floor, and that
Is all very well for an acrobat;
But it doesn't seem fair
To a Friendly Bear
To stiffen him out with a backet-chair.
And sort of squoze
Which grows and grows
Is not too nice for his poor old noce,
And sort of squch
Is much to much
For his neck and his mouth and his ears and such
.

This warm and sunny spot
Belongs to Pooh,
And here he wonders what
He is going to do.
Oh, bother, I forget
It's Piglet's too
