The Little Leprechaun

There once was a little leprechaun who was short, very tricky and green No one could catch this leprechaun for, he was seldom ever seen He played a magical wooden flute that, at times would fill the air You could sometimes hear the music he played even though he was not there They say that leprechauns live in hollowed out trees just inside the forests edge But, we'll never know exactly where for, that's part of their sacred pledge To hide from every person in sight whether they...be young or old That's the only way to hide away their great big pot of gold So, if you hear some music playing within the forest green Just know it could be that leprechaun who is seldom ever seen

Interesting how these mystical creatures are common even in Africa. In Kenya, we call them "Mazingaombwe". In South Africa, they are known as Tokoloshes. Congrats to your great, interesting WIN Roger! ;-)
