Here is the tale of the 13 Pesky Gnomes…
Thirteen pesky gnomes in a market one day,
Causing mischief and trouble in a sneaky kind of way.
They hid in the baskets, behind jars of jam,
Swiping free samples and slices of ham.
One rode a cabbage like a wild green steed,
Another played tricks with a bag of bird seed.
They danced on the counters, slid down the scales,
Tangled in aprons and knocked over pails.
They ducked in the teapots, they dove in the rice,
They swapped all the labels—not once, but twice!
Shoppers were baffled, the grocer just groaned,
“These gnomes are a menace!” he loudly moaned.
But just as the mayor was called to the scene,
The gnomes vanished quick—nowhere to be seen.
So if you hear giggles near the apples and loaves…
Keep your eyes peeled for those 13 gnomes!
