Yuletide Lad No.5: Pottasleikir (Pot Licker)


Pottasleikir (Pot-licker) comes visiting. He tries to snatch pots that have not been washed, and licks the scraps from them...



Pot Scraper, the fifth one,
was a funny sort of chap.
When kids were given scrapings,
he'd come to the door and tap.

And they would rush to see
if there really was a guest.
Then he hurried to the pot
and had a scraping fest.
