Wherever I am, there's always Pooh,
There's always Pooh and Me.
Whatever I do, he wants to do,
"Where are you going today?" says Pooh:
"Well, that's very odd 'cos I was too.
Let's go together," says Pooh, says he.
"Let's go together," says Pooh.
"What's twice eleven?" I said to Pooh.
("Twice what?" said Pooh to Me.)
"I think it ought to be twenty-two."
"Just what I think myself," said Pooh.
"It wasn't an easy sum to do,
But that's what it is," said Pooh, said he.
"That's what it is," said Pooh.
"Let's look for dragons," I said to Pooh.
"Yes, let's," said Pooh to Me.
We crossed the river and found a few-
"Yes, those are dragons all right," said Pooh.
"As soon as I saw their beaks I knew.
That's what they are," said Pooh, said he.
"That's what they are," said Pooh.
"Let's frighten the dragons," I said to Pooh.
"That's right," said Pooh to Me.
"I'm not afraid," I said to Pooh,
And I held his paw and I shouted "Shoo!
Silly old dragons!"- and off they flew.
"I wasn't afraid," said Pooh, said he,
"I'm never afraid with you."
So wherever I am, there's always Pooh,
There's always Pooh and Me.
"What would I do?" I said to Pooh,
"If it wasn't for you," and Pooh said: "True,
It isn't much fun for One, but Two,
Can stick together, says Pooh, says he. "That's how it is," says Pooh.

Us Two
From guest Penny Herbert (contact)
I read this at my son's wedding three years ago - for some reason I kept 'filling up' and am conforted to read that I'm not the only one! Afterwards I was complimented by someone saying that they had always felt it was a children's poem before they heard me reading it (despite the tears). What a lovely comment. I still fill up when I read it!!! -
I've always thought A.A.Milne's poetry left somethign to be disired, but after reading more, I've realized he's actually a really great poet- and I especially like this one!

Pooh
From guest Sezzie (contact)
As my daughter has asked me to read this at her wedding this summer, BUT, as she collapses in a heap of giggle whenever I practice, I am still unsure if it is a compliment that she thinks I can carry it off OR it is a send up. hummmmmm we will see..... -
