The Leprechaun

If you look ‘cross meadows green

Just at dusk he can be seen

Dancing in the twilight air

Starlight in his flowing hair

 

Bearded chin and buckled shoes

Best be quick, no time to lose

If you want to get a wish

You must catch this slippery fish

 

But just be careful if you try

Or he’ll blow stardust in your eye

Then you'll quickly fall asleep

And you will be in trouble deep

 

You’ll awake inside his cave

Forever more to be his slave

Then you will be in a dither

Suffering from the ol’ come hither

 

But if you’re sly and quick enough

Avoiding all his tricky stuff

You may be the one so bold

To get his little pot of gold

 

So if you want to take a chance

Come with me and watch him dance

Then my dear the race is on

And you might catch that leprechaun

 

 

 

 

In a list

Please tell me what you think

    Excellent poem with a truely amazing flow. As Elvenfairy said before though I didn't think that Leprechaun's took slaves. every story I've heard just says they disappear.

    Thanks for entering the contest.

    excellent

    Hi Steve,
    It's pedantic I know, but the half-rhyme in the last two lines could be bettered to make the rhythm and flow perfect.
    Could I make a suggestion?

    You will rue the day you're born,
    If you don't catch that leprecahaun.

    Still, it's pretty good anyway.

    Regards,
    Robin.

    PS Have the clap.
