Everyone has seen a rainbow, no doubt,
at its end, you had best keep an eye out:
for fairy folk may be lurking about.
Leprechauns can be grumpy, funny folks;
that some say love to play mischievous jokes
on naysayers who label them a hoax.
If it's their pot of gold, you'd be after,
try searching behind an attic rafter;
where kids readily swear they've heard laughter.
The Irish like to bribe them with some food,
thinking a free meal will keep them subdued:
but the wee folks are amazingly shrewd.
They love whiskey, and they'll steal it from you:
if you forget to leave a drop or two:
spilling a little on the floor will do.
Wherever a rainbow touches the ground,
keep your eyes open; have a look around:
some folks say a pot of gold might be found.
