Just an Elf

 
 
I spied an elf
Sitting righteously
On the parson’s
 
Mantel shelf,
 
A naughty elf,
All dressed in green,
Who did not very well
 
Explain himself …
 
When then asked if perhaps
He was a leprechaun,
 
With reluctance he did say,
“No. I checked my DNA;
 
I’m just an elf.”

Your Piece

Very nice piece of work. Nice to see something that is very well crafted and amusing to read...Nice change of pace. Thank you for sharing it. -David Work, stretch, take risks, visualize your future. Become the poet you have always longed to be. All that is needed is honest effort.-DSB

Elfs are are a race that must exist...

to show us how to handle what is left of this planet,the only reason they avoid us is because the majority of us are needlessly destructive, a sin to Elves. (was the room filled with a sweet smelling smoke?) I Believe, No Box
