I Caught A Leprechaun!

This is my St.Patrick's Day 

tale that I like to share every year.

~ ~ ~

You will not believe what I found in

my side yard!  Even I didn't

believe my eyes at first.

 Mr. Leprechaun!

This little guy was hiding

in this patch clover.

Is clover the same as shamrocks?

Well I think it is...

Yes I do!

I just had to get a better look.

I slowly crept closer...

but he saw me! 

And quicker than I could say

"Erin go Bragh" he had all his

gold coins gathered up.

 Well, there was no fooling him

what my intentions were.

But he underestimated just how

quick I could be...

So before he knew it, I had him in my

house and securely contained in my

handy dandy cloche!

Yesiree... Leprechaun under glass.

He was not going anywhere until

he handed over his pot of gold!

I told him I knew my rights...

after all I am Irish!

Yes I am...

So I waited, and waited,

and waited some more...

I waited so long that I started to fall asleep...

Then to my surprise... 

this is what I saw 

first thing in the morning!!!

He had forked over all his gold and left me 

this little rock to remember him by.

As if the gold wasn't enough...

So...

I took that rock right back out to where

I had found him, and placed it smack

dab in the middle of all that clover

to mark this special place.

After all...

You just never know when 

you might find a Leprechaun!

 "Erin go Bragh"
