Mom sent me on an egg hunt
She said look for pretty colors

But all I really wanted was
My favorite breakfast crullers

She shooed me out the door
Told me to have some fun

Bring back lots of goodies
Enough for everyone

When I got back from the meadow
Mom said, Goodness! What a mess!

What happened, what did you do?
To your brand new Easter dress?

I tried explaining carefully, how
My basket became overloaded!

And when I tried to empty it
All the eggs inside exploded!

Mom looked at me rather strangely
Then a smile came to her face

Laughing she said, it looked much better
Then it did, in the dressmaker’s place

Delph the Elf ~ #poetry #Christmas

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
