Leprechaun Legend

Near a misty stream in Ireland in the hollow of a tree
live mystical, magical leprechauns who are clever as can be.
With their pointed ears, and turned up toes and little coats of green,
the leprechauns busily make their shoes and try hard not to be seen.
Only those who really believe have seen these little elves.
And if we are all believers we can surely see for ourselves.
(Irish Blessing)
