Merry Elves, exhausted delivering gifts,
                        decided to accomplish pretty swift 
                           get their toughest job done..
                           for cute children to have fun,
                      with incredible toys, hard to resist. 

                     Damian and Ashwin's, Elves opened door, 
                      the boys had been diligent doing chores, 
                                 total silence, they’re in bed... 
                           children and pets - "great" Elves said..
                  "What's shining bright and tempting on the floor!" 

                        "Ha! An open brand new Pokémon game, 
                why don't we have some good fun - none will blame", 
                                  they all left in a rush when... 
                              mommy summoned the children,
                     lucky day for Elves, perfect time they came! 

                        Elves were super excited, thrilled to play, 
                    when children were fast asleep, they sure may,
                                 Santa would not know a bit,
                                 what they are up to...a kit, 
                       best chance for them to enjoy right away!

                      Damian's Fish gazed at them from the bowl,
                             a Guppy who listens to Rock n' Roll,
                           Elves didn't mind the swimming fish,
                                    Finally met secret wish...
                        "who cares a fish..no other watching soul!"

Such fun for the elves. Thank God, your grandchildren, Damian and Ashwin didn't wake up in the night. Even if they did, I am sure they wouldn't object the elves having some fun. :) Great limericks Mala
