Miriam, do you remember this one?

I've been trying to remember all the lines for a poem you helped me with at School! It went something like this:

A goblin lived inside a hut,
He was a jolly fellow.
The funny thing about him was,
He loved the colour yellow.

A yellow chair and table,
Sat beside a yellow mat.
He had a little yellow coat,
And a small yellow hat.

One day while walking in the field,
Some buttercups he saw,
Growing nearby a muddy pool,
A hundred, maybe more!

But as he reached to pick them,
To put in his wee dish,
He slipped into the muddy pool,
And was swallowed by a fish!

A woeful tale, I must agree,
I hear you cry "Poor fellow",
But here's the happy ending now,
You see...the fish was yellow!!!



I couldn't remember all of the lines but this was the general gist
