Edward was puzzled, he had no idea
Why his armor was turning and rusty
He’d polish it each day, until it shined
Now it was just dingy and crusty
Trying to figure out, where he went wrong
If he was using something he shouldn’t
Muddled and befuddled, it only got worse
He’d have to buy a new one, but he couldn’t
His honor as an ogre, was his golden shield
Seems he’d need to come up with a plan
Splashing orange paint, all over his pants
It turns out he’s a quite fancy man
None of the ogres ever questioned the why
And Edward surely wasn’t offering an explanation
He went about town, all decked out in his suit
Turning each day, into an orange celebration

The cool autumn breeze
Carries my thoughts
Upon the falling leaves
As they float through the air
On a journey unknown

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

Spirits beckon you
Hail the feelings within
Fear not the darkness
For it will echo through you
When the night becomes alive
