ungrateful Immortal sleeps...

Two ghost neon
Headlights
Touching black road
Eyes of
The gray gnomes
Searching for
Their precious pray...

Great Scot
that trot
on gnomes
and domes
Bamboozling, casting spells in dark site
Roaming and iridescent  like sprite...

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Born on Scottish soil
Both writer and physician, he delivered us Sherlock Holmes.
A spiritualist too, he believed in fairies; possibly in gnomes!...

In the land of fairies and gnomes
Was a gnome often seen on the phone
And an up to date fairy
With armpits quite hairy
Like all ballplayers were spit prone...

you have a boo boo?
May pixies sprinkle it with kindness
Divorce in the family?
I shall send in the gnomes.
Family death?
nurturing leprechauns better bring more than gold....

Gremlins, gnomes, a leprechaun and thee imps 
Walked into a bar owned by some chimps 
Ate too many chips
Weight went to their hips
They rolled out later, looking like blimps...

Eyes are sometimes useless when you need some combs.
Ears can see and smell what eyes and nose cannot sense under tombs.
Eyes can see gnomes, but ears can do better when darkness comes and roams....

Was a gnome often seen on the phone
An up to date fairy
With armpits quite hairy
Like all baseball players was spit prone

Our flag makes us proud no matter where we roam
Proud as beavers about this great land called home
A maple leaf is our symbol
An image so simple
Yet so meaningful in the hearts of all us gnomes...

Most days I'm in such a hurry to get home
Then sit around and do nothing or play with my gnomes
Love my little friends
Playing games of pretend
My gnomes try to trick me by playing their trombones...

" Lightening Bugs "
By: Tom Wright
8/17/03

Fireflies at evening on Zephyrs ride,
In courtship, they flash, as lightening.
Adrift o’er vale and wooded wayside,
Yet, as Gnomes, as day is brightening.

There is a strawberry faerie house deep in the woods.
The gnomes are jealous of it; it holds secrets and goods.
The fey had heard of it in whispers without cannots or should’s.
It is apparently a place to play music and delight in the woods....

The giants have stormed the castle,
The gnomes are stirring havoc in the kitchen.
Every which way I turn there is a charger or a steed.
Unicorns are trampling through the main hall.
I grin, knowing they have come for me.
Time to test my magic!...

Long icicles fall, splinter
On the grey cobblestones,
And silver shrouds of winter
Shield the frozen bones,
Frozen, flesh-full bones.

And ice-gnomes squirm and scurry
Over mossy tombs,
They’re hungry and they scurry
To the feasting rooms,
Marble feasting rooms....

the sounds of their feet

                             fresh snow "creak" - starry - full moon

                                  - small gnomes with wool socks

Quantum leaps
Pretty feet
Elf's running under the sycamore tree

As garden gnomes
Find their homes
Lo!  their minds are on flying drones

Evergreen trees
Eversole airmatic and pretty
Squirrels fall throwing pine cones

Three chubby short stubby snorting gnomes came into the field.
They held a skeleton, a cauldron, and a jack-o-lantern from our yield.
Give that Jack back! I challenged the thief, who would not show me his eyes.
They ran off with grandma’s favorite cauldron too, no big surprise!...

Witch Joyce had a contest with Wormwood, the warlock of choice.
He had stated his cauldron made better brew than that of Joyce.
Their cauldrons created conniving concoctions that tempted and dared.
The rest of the villagers, gnomes and faeries ran away, for they were all scared....

Kauai's wonder is Waimea Canyon.
It's called Grand Canyon of the Pacific.
Nearby the "Little People" do frolic.
They are the "Menehunes", companion
of the natives giving them help in need.
Fairy tale gnomes part of island lore's creed.
Some say they're oft seen on a white stallion....

Grog

Gulping down a flagon 

Gives one a gibbous glow. 

Gather 'round ye hardies,

Grab one and have a go. 

Ghostly foam and farting 

Gnomes bilge one gushing flow.

Garish gaffe...drinking Grog!

If I tell you the story
about  garden gnomes
and blue light
it will be more a fairy tale
maybe even a fable

you know
there are animals
in it
and they are talking


God shouldn't be mad


there is  no sense
that he bought me a watch

I rarely know to say
when is the right time...

I love the gnomes
I m drawn to them
One time I had twelve
I  named all of them
I named him Chris
He holds a gift for me
Another one I named 
Charlie
I have a tumbler
With gnomes and hearts
shapes
When waiting in a line 
It called out to me
So I bought it
I take my tumbler 
everywhere I go...
