The Hill Troll II (continued)

For the mushrooms that grew from the soil,
were grown through his labour, his hard work and toil.
At least that’s what he said, but it just was not true.

And the young maiden smiled for already she knew,
that trolls are prone to tell awful lies.
As for a young maiden she was very wise.

"Oh Mister Pokey" The young lady said,
"Can I pick toadstools, not mushrooms instead?"
The troll was confused but had to agree,
for he wanted those mushrooms himself, for his evening tea.
