Pot O' Gold

When I came to the end of the trail I was stunned to see a table spread with gold Which was being weighed on a magic scale As two leprechauns I did behold I stood there frozen with surprise as they continued counting their loot While I stood staring at this golden prize And these two leprechauns in green suits Then they put all their gold into a huge sack And into the woods they disappeared I don't think they were coming back But I noticed a gold coin lying there I hurried to pick it up and told myself that I'd found my pot of gold 6-21-2013

Nice going, Joseph. Many times just a part of something is as valuable as the whole. What is it worth to see one leprechaun, let alone two.... Jake
