Come into my cavern for a spell
Outside the ice-queen’s come again to dwell
What am i like? an image strong & dark
Where has it gone . . the warmth from my heart?
Black bear
Black bear
Ponder the power in the paw
Shiver at the strength built in the jaw
What is it like to pulse at winter sleep?
To fall in a dream a million miles deep?
Black bear
Black bear
I wake again with all i need to know
The honey-trail tells me where to go
& when i arrive i close my eyes to see
What’s stirring in the hollow of the tree
Black bear
Black bear
