My Résumé
I couldn’t find your address, so I hope this letter makes it.
I gave it to the mailman, and I really hope he takes it
Straight up to your workshop and then hands it right to you.
I hope it’s not too forward, but I really think it’s true
That I would be the perfect fit to be offered employment
By the team that’s brought me so much laughter and enjoyment.
I hope you get this letter, and, if you are so disposed,
I hope you take a look at the credentials I’ve enclosed.
As you can tell, I like to write. I am an avid reader.
I follow orders well, and I can be an awesome leader.
I’m really good at arts and crafts, and I think you will find
I’m an efficient worker with a sharp, creative mind!
I love to learn and think! I always go the extra mile
To lend a friend a helping hand or make somebody smile.
My brain is full of facts and plans, but, wise as I may seem,
I still believe in magic, and my heart still loves to dream.
I work quite well with others when devoted to a task,
And I promise that I’ll always do whatever you may ask!
In my free time, I like to craft my loved ones sweet surprises.
But I hate to be present when they find their thoughtful prizes.
I’m nimble, and I’m quiet, and I’m good at hide and seek!
I really don’t mind working every hour of the week
When I’m doing something I love that means a lot to me.
So, based on what I’ve shared, I hope it’s clear and you’ll agree
That there is not a person better suited than myself
To work with you and fill the job of your new Christmas elf.
