How To Catch a Leprechaun - A Poem For Saint Patrick's Day Have you e’er looked upon The clever elusive leprechaun Well if you do it is told He must give you all his gold If a rainbow you chance to see Get yourself to whereat it be And if Irish luck is with you You then just might luck into The wee man’s potted treasure Of gold coins beyond measure But this can only be realized If you gaze into his eyes An act he’s promised not to allow But it can be done and here’s how The dwarf’s riches can be won By doing what has to be done You must spot him from far away Then wait until the end of day When the owl’s hoot is the only sound And he’s confident no one is around Stealthily approach his campsite Grab him from behind and hold tight And promise not to let him go Until he pledges you all his dough Turn him then and eye to eye Look upon the little guy You’ll see a twinkle then a blink And what next do you think? The pot of gold will magically appear And as you’re smiling ear to ear The elfin fellow will dash away Shouting “Happy Saint Patty’s Day!” ----- Thanks for reading & commenting.
