All know the Toppats - a notorious clan.
Members rooted in rich history, every woman and man.
There is one Toppat in green,
Ever so greedy and keen -
He's secretly a leprechaun on the lam!
She is no charlatan, she is the witch!
Her hands sows spices and herbs.
But she is a criminal, has that thieving itch.
She is no charlatan, she is the witch!
Though spells and remedies make her rich,
She is odd by her peers, but sides she will not switch.
She is no charlatan, she is the witch!
Her hands sows spices and herbs.
Kindred spirits, crooked beings-
They share a bond like no other.
Leprechaun and witch spend time in their greetings,
Sharing secrets and gossip and raids and teachings.
They wouldn't have this relationship with another.
A/N: Nothing like experiencing sickness over the weekend and writing up poems to deal with them. I'm fine now but sheesh, was it annoying feeling sick. Onto the chapter! Quick question - did anyone else come up with this idea before? If not, I'm surprised given the love for the background characters. Pairing them up does create room for potentiality, I think. These series of poems (limerick, triolet and cinquain respectively) - you can see them as friends or something more, however works for you. Enjoy!

-The original title of these poems (Leprechauns and Witches Don't Commit Crimes) is a throwback to the The Adventures of the Bailey School Kids. The kids have encountered so many mystical and supernatural creatures that should they meet the Leprechaun and the Witch from the Toppats, they would probably be used to all those kooky happenings by now.
