Lucky Leprechaun

There once was an old elf from Sweden
who envisioned Ireland as Eden.
He made the trip west
and in a gold chest
found shoemakers’ tools to succeed in.

Thank you Kim. It is not always easy to pull off what you have in mind when limited by syllables/words/lines. It worked to my advantage this time.
