Special friends

Make things right

In the bright of day

Or through the night,

Carry them, kiss them,

Give them a hug.

Sleep with them in bed

All safe and snug.

Waiting for me

If I go away.

Just think of them

And feel okay.

Always there for me

When I get sad.

Make me feel comforted,

Make me feel glad.

Hold them, love them,

Such a treasure.

Having them in my life

Gives me pleasure.

One wears capes

To match my clothes,

But how to dress a blanket,

No one knows!

Who are these friends

Who make me feel lucky?

One’s named baby

And the other one’s Ducky
