Troll Rock



photo from Natural Bridge state park in Kentucky

poem by Michael Sauls

Long ago in a wooded glen

the trolls did dance in mortal sin

beneath full moon in frenzied dance

another mortal they would entrance

and to their rock him they would bring

to hear the death song he would sing

And then one day a great knight came

to find the trolls and end their reign

he fought the trolls from dusk to dawn

until the battle he had won

then closed his eyes in eternal sleep

that wooded glen it would him keep

and still in that wooded glen

where once the trolls did dance in sin

there stands troll rock

waiting in the silence

(pause)

that someday trolls might dance again
