An Elf On My Shelf Poem by Princess LilyPad

Small little feet little buns little hands,
The delicate bones that form a true baby grand,
Flecks of light that bounce from his boyish silken crown,
Of fine hazelnut hairs tousled all around.
Elfin like and bright, round head and pointy ears
Dimples so deep, half his cheeks disappear
Baby teeth gone now replaced by gummy grin
That in time, will be a smile highlighting an already devlish chin
With a blast of cheer he chirps from a heart yet drawn and old
“I’m just bursting with love for you, mama” yes, this to me he sparklingly told.
I entwine my gracious hands, through his yet now just growing limbs
And in that moment it’s just me, an embrace, a mother's love and him.
