Larry was a very worried bear
Almost to the point of despair.
It was a week before the polar bear ball
And did he have a date? Not at all
He didn’t have a thing to wear
And no one to go with, Sabrina said no as did Cousin Clair
The morning of the dance Brother Bruce found Larry sitting on a bank
And decided with Larry he needed to be frank
“If you want to attend.” Larry said “just go stag”
Larry answered that if he went with a gay deer he would be a punching bag
Bruce remembered what his mom said was, in dealing with Larry, a rule of thumb
Speak slowly and clearly because Larry is a litle dumb
Bruce knew Larry didn’t stand a chance
Because at the ball it would be clear Larry didnd’t know how to dance
So Bruce decided to do all he could do
To teach his brother to dance, knowing it would fail, in all likelihood.
They slightly swayed to and fro
Shuffling their feet in the snow
Until it was time to go
Larry was ready to put on a show
He strolled in asked for a dance from the first girl her saw
And when he began moving the other bears stood in awe
Because Larry moved like a hair ballerina
Impeessing his date, the princess polar bear, Angelina
He slipped, he slid, he stopped, he bopped, he bumped a did the grime
He moved so quickly he did not see the line
His thoughts in his dancing paradise
He fell through the ice
Usually Larry would have been crestfallen
But he did not care that he had fallen
But nothing bothered him because he had found the answer
From this day forward Larry was a dancer
is that a poem about our dancing dad? hahahahahahaha
