When The Leprechauns Dance

By: Felix L. Perry

when the leprechauns

dance at rainbows end

to the music of the flute

will you join me there

be my dance partner

with the wee ones oh so cute

round their pot of gold

we’ll all hold hands

till the moon is in the sky

then when they sleep

away we’ll creep

to watch the fairies fly

with the magic dust

from a fairy princess

sprinkled in our hair

like Peter Pan and Wendy

we’ll leave the earth

to float on clouds of air

circle round the stars

greet the man in the moon

taste some of his cheese

then back to earth

to stop at Candyland

chocolate breakfast if you please

then home to our beds

such sleepy heads

from our childhood fantasy

a kiss goodnight

with a hug real tight

now that's a sweet reality
