Twas New Year’s Eve down in the Dingle
Elves and goblins began to mingle
With the gnomes and sprites
In tinselly tights
Each one claiming that they are single
Gnome-made punch from wild mushroom and berry
Made the goblins unusually merry
Then the elves and sprites
Got as high as kites
And on top of each tree was a fairy
New day dawns down in Dingley Dell
End of old era told by a knell
Head gnome issues a call
“Health and happiness: all”
“But for God’s sake stop ringing that bell!”
