Edgar.

My Edgar, it seems, has gone missing.
I’ve searched, and he’s not anywhere!
His clothes are right here,
And – Oh NO! Edgar, dear!
I hope he’s not running 'round bare!

Edgar, enough now, where are you?
I’m tired of looking! Come out!
I’m frazzled and tossed
– My, I hope he’s not lost –
Come, Edgar, please don’t make me shout!

I really insist you come in now!
It’s dinnertime; don’t you be late!
The food is all hot,
But it’s here, and you’re not.
Oh Edgar, you’re making us wait!

Does it look like rain to you, Edgar?
Good heavens, it’s getting quite dark!
If you come in right now
Dear, I promise, somehow,
Tomorrow we’ll go to the park.

Would you like some cookies, dear Edgar?
A chocolate or a lemon drop?
Come inside and they’re yours;
We’ll go to the toy store!
Or maybe to the ice cream shop!

Edgar, enough of this, really!
You’re in trouble for sure now, no doubt!
I will turn, count to ten,
Go back inside, and then,
If you aren’t here, I’m locking you out!

All right, I am turning and counting:
One, Two, Three, Four, Edgar Dear!
Five, Six, Seven, Eight,
Nine, and Ten. It’s too late!
I am locking the – Oh! He’s not here!

My Edgar, it seems, has gone missing.
I’ve searched, and he’s not anywhere.
Children, get off the street!
(They’re his favorite treat)
Because Edgar’s my pet Polar Bear.
