ogre gives a grateful toot
The ogre was irritated with the woman with the locket
She had accidentally run off with his boot in her pocket
He stumbled upon it a few months later in the woods.
It had been created into a darling house, where it stood.
He did not have the heart to take it back, for he was soft.
There were several children inside, one of them was named Coft.
Coft waved at the ogre and yelled out “Thank you for the boot!”
Ogre was glad for the thank you, so he gave a grateful toot.
