origin stories

ORIGNIN STORIES


One evening,
Far into the future,
An island troll was skipping
Happily along the trail.
Away from humanity,
The troll resided in a cove along the Atlantic.
Seeing a odd colored clam
He reached in to the water to pick it up.
As the clam came out its mouth opened,
And the troll couldn’t believe it;
There was a pearl inside!
So he turned the clam back and took the pearl,
Each year returning on that exact day.
Waiting for that clam
And waiting to take his pearl once more.

  1. How did the pearl come to be and what did he do with the pearls he collected? Also, I am still missing your Series poem.
