Winter City Elves
This winter I write about elves
Wherever they happen to thrive
I penned four different kinds of verse
I might as well pen number five
I did not travel too far
I should have had a hunch
There they were awaiting me
Where I have my Sunday brunch
These elves are of a different breed
More earthly then I've known
They just might be half-human
To a taller stature prone
To all kinds I will be kind
Elves from mountains, woods, or sea
This tribe just so happened
To live so close to me!
Delightful creatures, yes indeed
I'm so glad my vision's clear
To the finer things in life
And the spirits that are near
The elves, they live among us
These were pleasant to this troll
For yummy precious moments
This poet's eyes they stole!
