(G)nome


by james bezerra



When I went to Nome Alaska

I was quite startled to learn

it was not named for Gnomes!

With anger and embarrassment I did burn

upon discovering that gnomes don’t freely roam

‘round every corner and turn.

“I came to Nome to see a Gnome!” I did bemoan.

I continued, “The name of ‘Nome’ this place did not earn!”

So finding nary a gnome in Nome, I angrily drove home.
