An Elf Named Nack

There was an elf whose name was nack
He did such things as others lacked
But then one day he got a nick 
Upon his knee right from a pick

They laid him up so he could heal
Upon a shelf  by window seal
Though never would he work again
He'd give a smile when one passed him

In time his name would come to mean 
A little thing a figurine
Now some that sat upon a shelf 
Must surely look just like this elf
