Enchanted

Fairies, Goblins, Elves and Trolls,
Giants, Gnomes and Swiss cheese holes.
Vampires, Unicorns and a Beanstalk in the sky,
Werewolves and Pixies and Pigs that can fly.

Ghosts and ghouls and other scary stuff,
Like a wolf with some pigs and a huff-puff-puff.
How about Witches, or a Centour and his bow?
or a man made entirely from gingerbread dough.

Phoenixes, Mermaids, Gryffins and Gargoyles,
Ogres and Harpies and a Gorgon's snake coils.
An innocent Faun, and a tough-looking Minotaur,
Wyverns and Loch Ness with Sirens on shore.

The Leprechaun, Chimera, Hyrda or Bigfoot,
A Bunyip, a Yeti, covered in Dragon soot.
A Water Nymph, Banshee, A Genie in a lamp,
Magic Sprites and Yowies, or a mighty Golems Stamp.
