There's a Polar BearIn our Frigidaire--He likes it 'cause it's cold in there. With his seat in the meat And his face in the fish And his big hairy paws In the buttery dish, He's nibbling the noodles, And munching the rice, He's slurping the soda, He's licking the ice. And he lets out a roar If you open the door. And it gives me a scare To know he's in there-- That Polary BearIn our Fridgitydaire. .Shel Silverstein
About This Quote
This poem shows the innocence of childhood and the fun we can have. The children like to play and enjoy their lives. The irony is that the only thing the bear cowers from is the cold and food that is left out for him. If one were to go all out on a picnic, there is no way this bear would eat any of it. By leaving food out for him, you are allowing him to live a comfortable life without having to worry about his own needs. He does not want to leave the comfort of your home and instead eats all that you have provided for him.
