THE JELLY ELVES

They live in Wibbly Wobbly land

Where the hills are peppermint green

The trees are striped with custard piped

With leaves of clotted cream

 

The roads are paved with chocolate squares

White lines are milky bars

The blue of the sky is blueberry pie

While sugar cubes twinkle like stars

 

The jelly elves live in pastry homes

With clear mint windows and liquorice locks

Take a few licks of the fancy red bricks

They’re made from holiday rocks

 

Buses are painted with strawberry jam

Cars fashioned from toffee slabs

Biscuit based bikes and treacly trikes

Yellow honeycomb built the cabs

 

Now these little sweeties are everywhere

Just watching the children play

They’re very sad if you’re really bad

And your tantrums will send them away

 

They’ll return when you’re really good

With happiness shining through

So be good and kind and you will find

Them dancing jigs round you.
