The Naughty Gnome

One bright and sunny morning,
I had nothing to do,
So I fell into the river,
I guess that must be true.
I climbed out of the river,
And ran straight for home,
I tripped over my shoes laces,
And fell onto a gnome.
I hopped up and ran inside,
To my warm and cosy bed,
The gnome he followed me into to my home, Hitting me on the head.
The next sunny morning,
The gnome was on the floor,
I picked him up and suddenly
Threw him out the door
