Eóin and Lorcán (Intro)

Tom was a ginger cat with a badly damaged ear

Who roamed the towns of Mayo, Claremorris being near

On a cold and wet autumn day when the rain was pelting down

Tom ran through a garden wide, hoping to be found.

Out came a tiny human, jumping in the puddles

He spotted poor ol’ freezing Tom, and gave him tons of cuddles.

Tom was not used to love, he was an awfully lonely cat

But this human boy, so full of joy, plucked him from where he sat.

The boy was very warm and gentle, careful not to squeeze

Shaking Tom, who was dripping wet, curled upon his knees.

“Pretty cat,” said the boy, smiling with perfect glee

“I’ll keep you dry, so don’t you cry!” he said after a sneeze.

Wrapping Tom up in a jumper, the boy watched him sleep

With purring sounds and fluffed up fur as soft as the wool of sheep.

He ran inside to tell his Mom who didn’t mind at all

If Tom stayed in the yard during the wet and chilly fall.

Levi's Lucky Star

Lucky boy Levi clumsily tripped upon star

Fallen from the twilight sky up so very far.

He pulled it from the glittering snow in which it was stuck

Thinking that this splendid star might just bring him luck.

In his pocket he dropped the star that shone out so bright

That Levi's shadow was hidden by the glowing halo light.

Frozen by the winter cold, he hurried to get back home

Hopping in the perfect snow that reminded him of foam.

Very slowly and very quietly, Levi opened the door

And slid through the little crack lit across the floor.

Sneaking on tipy-toe, he avoided the creaking planks

Making sure to make no noise lest his mother wakes.

He nearly reached his bedroom door that was so very close

But half way past the sitting room, Levi suddenly froze!

Cozily by the cracking fire his father sat alone

Sure to see the blazing light that from Levi's pocket shone.

Closing both his fearful eyes, Levi waited to hear

His father's voice, so angry and course, ringing in his ear.

Three long seconds had finally gone without a single sound

Other than his father's snore mixed with his heartbeat's pound.

Levi sighed with great relief and scurried to his bed

Jumping in without delay and laying down his head.

But before he closed his sleepy eyes, the star he did withdraw

And wished a wish for a little sis from Mr. Santa Claus.

.

Then under his pillow he hid the star so no one would ever know

But shortly after he fell asleep, the star lost its glow.

Morning came with the rising sun, but Levi didn't wake

Until his mom kissed his head and gave him a little shake.

“Levi Dear, my lucky boy, there is something I have to tell.

Our family is going to grow by one. My belly is going to swell.”

Levi jumped up from his bed, excitement showing in his eyes

Never in his short three years had he received such a surprise.

“Is a girl? Is it a girl?” Levi eagerly asked.

“It is, my dear, a little girl. You're a big brother at last.”

Bouncing upon his comfy bed, Levi shouted with delight

While his mother watched lovingly her son take to flight.

His mother left her joyful son who laughed for quite some time

Until he realized that just last night he made a wish in rhyme.

“Starlight, star bright, first star I see tonight.

I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight.”

Remembering at last the shining star, he pushed his pillow aside

Revealing nothing but shimmering dust where the star once lied.

Smiling a smile rather large, Levi said goodbye

But not before thanking the star for his sister Morgan Skye.  

The Goomba Lurp

Chesnie was a little girl just about your age

Snatched up by a Goomba Lurp and locked up in a cage!

A very pretty girl she was with manners kind and sweet.

The perfect kind of little girl that Goomba's love to eat.

Walking through the flower garden, Chesnie had no clue

That waiting quietly in the pond was a Goomba colored blue.

All the frogs croaked out load to scare Chesnie away

But the little girl giggled instead thinking they wished to play.

She bent down close and turned her head to listen all the more

To the frogs who croaked so much that their throats were very sore.

The Goomba Lurp spread his toes with webs between each one

Then he drove right in without a noise-of splashes there were none.

He swam and slithered like a snake with horns all down his tail

Baring teeth of an awful green and as sharp as a wire nail.

Two bulging eyes glared at the girl, who pulled back her hair

To keep her locks from getting wet, she took extra care.

The Goomba Lurp saw his chance and grabbed the little girl

But just before he dragged her down, she was spotted by a squirrel.

Flicking his tail in wild fear, the squirrel ran up the tree

Chirping to friends, to birds and deer, and even to the bees.

While the animals scampered above, Chesnie was pulled below

Held on tight by the Goobma Lurp who's hunger started to grow.

Into the cage he threw the girl, then locked it with a key

Given to him as a birthday gift from the Loch Ness of the sea.

It was fire-proof and unbreakable, impossible to undo

Swallowed by the Goomba Lurp and he didn't even chew.

An evil laugh escaped his gut and shook poor Chesnie's cage

So she shrilly shrieked in his ear, causing a red hot rage.

“Quiet you! I'll eat you up! Just you wait and see,”

“I'll have you with some filleted fish, or maybe even brie!”

Another laugh burst out loud as he cackled at his joke.

He laughed so hard, he couldn't breath and began to choke.

Chesnie looked away from him, unable to hide her woe

But not far off in the pond, were fifty fish in a row!
