There was an old man named Shane

Who was born in the city of Spain

One day he went for a stroll

and was attacked by a very large troll

Said the troll to the Shane, “You will feel no pain,

if I may, I might take just one bite of your arm;

for soon I will eat your hands and feet, but for now I will take your arm.”

Then said the old man in fear, but it still was loud and clear.

“Do no harm to my arm for I use it in every way!”

“If you may, you might just save your bite for another day.”

“Why?” asked the troll in tears. “May I eat your legs?” he said swiping his tears.

“If you may, you might just save your bite for bacon and eggs instead of human legs.”

The old man was kind and changed his mind.

So the troll behaved good like all the trolls should.

So now the troll properly dined.
