---

I wrote a story
About an elf
And sang and sang it
To myself.

I drew a picture
Of a deer
Even though
No one was near.

I sketched a portrait
In the sand
And then erased it
With my hand.

I've shown my art
To friends before,
But usually
It makes them snore.

But that's alright--
I'll be happy
As long as art
Will just please me.
