A Troll and Two Elves
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 am kind,
Elves from mountains, woods, or sea
This tribe just so happened
To live so close to me
Delightful creatures, all the same
I'm so glad my vision's clear
To fairy wonder-magic
And the spirits that are near
The elves, they live among us
They were pleasant to this troll
How nice for precious moments
My poet's eyes they stole.
