A Leprechaun’s Gold
Poetry - A Leprechaun’s Unfortunate Obsession
For years and years,
That Leprechaun
Has only filled the same mold
A hapless fool,
His mind charmed by
his pot of gold
A poor sod
That thinks of nothing
But to keep
The metals within his hold
I have to admit
At this point,
It really gets old
Outside the window,
I catch him,
Staring up guardedly,
With eyes so cold.
He turns a cold shoulder,
His heart firmly chained
To the pot of gold
And I wonder,
When he will fold,
And realize that what matters
Is not the gold
This poem was inspired by a writing prompt from the “Storyteller’s Vault” Publication.
