Best Gnome Poems

Darlene De Beaulieu graciously consented for her poem "Gnomes" to be used by me in this contest. Thank you Darlene!

There’s no gnome 
like the gnome at home.
I have a gnome at home alone.
Chantilly, Chris, or Charlie -
they’re friends for you and me.

Your tumbler sweet
sure is...

Gnarly is cozy in his winter best today
His clothes were a gift from Mrs. Claus,
a uniform like Santa’s complete with red hat
His is knitted, even warmer than Santa’s maybe

He gets out his favorite Christmas book
Begins to read, loving the cozy plaid pillows.
Where did they come...

The gnome did not know any other way
Than to serenade the birdies with a happy hooray
He uplifted their spirits on this lovely Saturday.
They tweeted their appreciation to the wise gnome named Gay....

While I was sitting on my porch one day,
It was in the middle of May, 
I saw a great sight,
A gnome in fright,
And then he ran away...

There once was a gnome named Jerome
Who made a herb garden his home.
One day as he frolicked,
He slipped and fell on some garlic
And was instantly killed when a clove cleft his dome.

The sad news of Jerome spread as far north as Nome,
And there was weeping...

A Gnome Rhyme

One day I thought I’d take a walk, so I went down to the park.
I hoped to see a Robin or Wren, or even a Meadow Lark.
When suddenly I saw someone, appear before my eyes.
It was a Gnome all dressed in black; of...

The man walked up the alley
A shepherd in a valley
Looking for that one lost sheep
When WhatsApp gives a beep
The man took our his phone
An ape picks up a bone
And uses it as a tool
To bash the brainless fool
The sheep had wandered off
As the feet on...

A gnome wrote a poem
" How to love Sarah Moonface"
But his carrot nose fell
Murphy's Law
Nibelung 
lost his pen in Moselle

You say that you can picture me sitting in my chair.
What is it that you picture when you look from over there? 
Do you envision beauty or an ugly, wrinkled hag? 
Does my skin give off a glow or do my wrinkles sag? 

It's strange...

The Gnome was sad he was sitting feeling unloved and alone.
Nobody seemed to notice him now, when they came home.
He once was happy, smiling all day.
As they cam down the path, some even came to play.
His paint was cracked; his fishing rod was broke.
He was...

Road Rager Gnome

There I was a going home,
4pm traffic going flowing,
driving me little Corolla, going,
when I saw this fool Road Rager ,

he seemed to lunge his car at me ,
and stop just short deliberately,
to try to cast some fear, in me,
just a bit of temper...

Roman Gnome

There once was an Emperor of Rome
Who invented the first garden Gnome
He thought it looked cute
In its Christian suit

Mascot to the Coliseum of Rome...

Some people like keeping up with the Joneses
I do not know any Joneses who could keep up with me
So I have elected to keep up with the gnomes
How absurdly difficult could that task be?

I like wearing leggings, and I have no height
I love gardens, faerie...

We know all roads lead to Rome
So you drive a posh Motor Home
For goodness sake
Elate your mate
And lose that damn garden gnome!...
