Always hiding, within a book

Never glancing out, to take a look

Delph the Elf, was a studious guy

Never cared much for Santa, but why?

No one knew, twas a puzzle to all

How could he do this, oh what gall!

Christmas was near, the children, excited

Yet this little elf would stay home, he decided

He sat on his chair, day after day

Night after night, he liked it this way

See, he didn’t care, he kept to himself

Thankful for not being stuck on a shelf
