The Legend of Betty

The Legend of Betty

A Story by SmittyJas
"

She had love and lived so long ago

"
The legend of Betty
The sweet heart to the Mountain Lion

Betty She Live and loved such a long time ago
In the mountain and hills and valleys below
When the Elf's and Nomes 
Short people who look up to Betty

For guidance and for tending the meadows
and planting food and raising wheat
baking bread and milking cows
She had a green hand in farming

Betty could stitch clothes together
Making winter garments for the Nomes
The Elf's Lived in caves
high in the mountain's

Betty knew she was a friend to both
Elf's and Nomes
She sang sweet songs with the birds of the air
and treated nature with kindness

No sign of bewilderment would come
She was happy living in the Mountains
with her friends the Nomes and Elf's 
Smart as a whistle

They could answer any question Betty had
There were no hidden secrets in the mountains
Or in the caves of the Elf's
Everything was above board and Betty was proud

of her home and the tiny existence 
unknown to most
She has her own little place to call home
in this big world of ours

At night they would build a big camp fire
Singing all the old favorites
and creating some new songs
The Elf's and the Nomes
 
really knew how to get along
It was back in the day of century 15
When Betty ruled the mountains
Hills and valleys

and she was in touch with nature
and nature was in touch with her
The 15 Century was a grand old time
Back when the world was a peaceful place 

Natural Betty was so kind
For after all did you know
Betty tamed the Mountain Lion
It is known

Something totally different than I am used to coming from you Smitty. We all have the young dreams that need to come out in stories. Valentine
