floating above my bed was a little elf wizard with a large book
his wizened face long beard and sage smile captivated my mind
with a puff on his pipe he began to speak of such tales for me
he greeted me with tales of elfin ways
each night he came settled himself comfortably then lit his pipe
his eyes would begin to twinkle as he opened his book of intrigue
the elfin court was always famous for such hilarious misdeeds
he greeted me with tales of elfin ways
id listen rapturously to his stories laughter following each tale
elfin youngsters who always seemed to be in mischief of some kind
of their comical ways or their serious side the elfin world intrigues
he greeted me with tales of elfin ways
hed tell me of the care and love they had for the forest and animals
how they balanced each other out how meticulously the elves worked
their homes high in the trees sheltered by thick lush branches
he greeted me with tales of elfin ways
just before id fall asleep hed take his leave with a promise to return
the thought of his pending return always seemed to comfort me
as he took his leave he turned to me saying dont lose your elven ways
he greeted me with tales of elfin ways
