Everyday Miracles
: A Troll Adventure by DeboraDyess

 
One day, I went out on a stroll
and there I met an ugly troll
'neath lightning flashed and thunder roll
 
I said, "Do you have magic still?"
He answered, "Yes, I'll have it till
I give it up because I'm ill."
 
I thought this conversation stale
decided I would end the tale
so we went out and had some ale.
 

Author Notes
This is called a Diminishing poem. The last word of the first line in each stanza is the 'root' for the last word of the subsequent lines. Each line loses a letter of the previous word:
stroll - troll - roll
etc.
It was different! Hope it was a chuckle.
Thanks for reading!
