Garden Goblin 

I know there is a Goblin in my garden rows,

I chase him out with my rakes and hoes.

He nibbles my veggies, eating all the tops,

hopping out of reach, dragging his ear flops.

He doesn't fool me. No, not even one bit,

all dressed up in his bunny rabbit outfit.

I know there is a Goblin gobbling up my greens,

and I know the bugger doesn't like the beans.

He goes right past the net I put up to keep him out.

Every morning, there he is mouthing a new sprout!

I know there is a Goblin in my garden rows!
