When once a young lad
Whose name was Thad,
Went for a walk in the country
There came a great shout
And a tremulous cry
For he stumbled upon a monster.
Old Fornax the brute
A foul-tempered troll
Who was given to travelers's travails
Came upon he with a great
Wooden stump - a former tree
He did a thump thump thump.
He did proceed to wander
Into the village proper.
Where he found to his surprise
The central square alight
With adornment gay, and song and tune -
Chorus and Instrument combined.
Astonished was he,
though brutish and vile,
He smiled and laid down and cried.
Well, as you might see, I haven't written much poetry recently, and I am a little bit rusty. Basically, what happened (to clarify this poem) is that Thad went into the woods for a walk, he came upon Fornax, who threatened him with a tree stump club (rootball attached) then Fornax chased Thad all the way into town, where there were some festivities taking place, which made Fornax sad.
