A Gnome Alone

(image source: dreamworlds.ru)

‘Twas far from home
that the little gnome
found himself all alone
in the forest to roam 

*
“Oh dear, oh dear,”
he thought in fear
when it became clear
no one was near

*

Then began the snow
to grow and grow
before long he didn’t know
which way he should go

*

When Birdies in a tree
the shivering gnome did see
with each other did agree
up there he should be

*

Down one of them flew
while saying “Hey there you
your face is turning blue
and your hair’s frozen too!” 

*

“Up with us do climb.”
to him a thought divine
their warmth he found sublime
and fell asleep in no time!

*
