My Good Luck Troll

He is my good luck troll my grandma said.
If you want good luck, just rub his head.
She’s lost three sisters and a brother.
No thank you said my wise young mother.

Go on and give him a rub, grandma said.
He will like it, look, he’s leaning his little head.
She had been through eight disasters, plenty.
With luck like that, I do not want any.

I’ve never found anything to like in a troll. How are you, Karen?

I’ve been babysitting my 3 month old granddaughter for a few weeks until she begins nursery school next month and yesterday I put together a dollhouse for her 3 yr old sister. So, I’m chugging along just fine.
