Flobberworm
What a waste of time
And space; brown worms do not
Need to be cared for
Fwooper
So pretty to see
But so scary to hear; it
Will drive you insane
Ghoul
Slimy and ugly
Hiding in the attic to
Make noise and throw things
Giant
Huge and frightening
They will not be kind to you
Even if you're blood
Glumbumble
Furry little bug
To quell hysteria with
A dose of sadness
Gnome
Out in the garden
Making a mess of all things;
Little potatoes
Graphorn
Giant and purple
Stay away from the two horns
And the thick, tough hide
Griffin
Front of an eagle
And the back of a lion;
He will guard treasure
Grindylow
The water demon
With green skin, sharp horns, and long
Fingers to grip you
Gytrash
Much like the Grim, he
Is a huge spectral hound who
Lives in the forest
Hag
Like a witch in a
Fairytale, with a wild
Look and taste for kids
Hinkypunk
Do not be deceived
By his smokiness and light;
He'll lead you to death
Hippocampus
The front of a horse
And the back of a big fish;
She lives in the sea
Hippogriff
Another hybrid
This time of eagle and horse;
He looks for honor
Horklump
Looks like a plant but
Do not be deceived; it is
A big garden pest
House Elf
Short and smart with the
Biggest eyes you've ever seen;
They just want to help
Imp
Short and brown or black
He lives in a marsh and tries
To trip passersby
Jarvey
Like a large ferret,
He will gladly talk to you,
But just to be rude
Jobberknoll
A tiny blue bird
He will never make a sound
Until life is done
Kappa
A dangerous beast
Like a monkey with scales;
He will strangle you
Kelpie
A shape-shifter who
Will gladly lure you to the
Depths and feast on you
Knarl
Just like a hedgehog,
But he will get offended
And ruin your plants
Kneazle
A very smart cat
Who can tell if you are
A worthy person
Lethifold
Like a black cloak that
Will wait until you sleep
And then devour
Lobalug
Creature of the sea;
It makes a good weapon for
All the merpeople
