DWARFS

CAVE DWELLERS

In days of old if story be told

Dwarfs would wield an ax and mine for gold

Silver and gold and diamonds behold

Always the collectors these mineral inspectors

Hewed halls lined with silver walls of bold

Floors of marble and ceilings of gold

Represents the Dwarf's humble abode

A white beard and a scarlet hood

Would be quite understood

For that was the garb of the day

needless to say

And a mug of beer was always good cheer

Talk of goblins and dragons of blue

would most surely ensue

These days are long gone

Remembered only in story and song
