AN ELF LIVES IN MY GARDEN

An elf lives in my garden                                                            

But he's not often seen.

His clothing's very neat

And brightly coloured green.

It's true he's sometimes naughty.

One day I caught him, well,

Dipping my washing in a frog pond.

He really made it smell!

An elf lives in my garden

Behind a big old tree.

He sits on a toad stool seat

Poking his tongue out at me.

But his smile is friendly

I don't mind a bit of fun.

An elf lives in my garden -

Just glad that he's the only one!
