Changed the prompt to match the festivities we are celebrating today.
Out of the Forest
Green fungus under the toe nails, dirt upon my face
I come out of the forest to tease the human race
Look for my pot o’ gold hidden before your eyes
Believeing the rainbow fable made up of irish lies
Clovers are a great excuse, for you to believe this tale
A day made famous for drinking plenty of green ale
Mischivious and cursing, I let you get a glimpse of me
But as for my big pot o’ gold, you’ll never be able to see
And if green is not your color, you need not have fear
The bruises I leave after pinching you make it very clear
This is a day for celebration and purple can be seen
Believe the misconception that Leprechaun’s are not mean
Like any fable, the truth gets twisted through the years
Searching for my hidden treasure will only bring you tears
Pass out tonight after being overloaded with Irish toasts
Welcome to your nightmare, I am your little green host.
Pinches galore, Guinness beer and corned beef cabbage.
Happy St.Paddy’s day my friends.
