Nature’s most beautiful creatures

Are never truly a threat to man

The danger is in the mortal beast

Who destroys whatever he can

Beware the sky, of sun’s last light
When the trolls come out to play
They vanish, into the ebony night
Tis then, you should stay away

Nighttime comes, and so they wake
There’s no chance to be turned to stone
You’ll feel them, as the ground does quake
Best to leave them, by themselves, alone

They’ll wander about the darkened land
You can bet they’re looking for trouble
For they seem to think they are so grand
Perhaps, I need to burst their bubble

Get them to think the day has passed
Lure them, into the bright of the sun
Stop them dead, their faces, aghast
I’ll do this each day, til there are none

I lurk in the shadows

That block out the sun

Long for the hours

When daylight is done

Dwell in the darkness

Tis where I’m content

Hidden, unnoticed

Is how my life’s spent

I am one with the creatures

Who stir in the night

Awaiting the sunset

To silence the light

Without a Care

She reads aloud without a care

Unafraid that I am there

I have to wonder what she sees

When at last she looks at me

Continuing on with her journey in mind

She speaks of a forest, so soft and so kind

Of places that sparkle in emerald green

Of creatures she’s never really seen

Of beauty concealed in faraway lands

All this from the book

That she holds with her hands

Still she sits here before me

Enrapt in the story

As she utters the words

I can’t help but adore thee
