Iceland #7



Trip trap trip trap
goes the troll
crossing the wooden bridge
over the deep valley

Splish Splash Splish Splash
goes the troll
having a shower in the waterfall
using moss for a towel

Slurp gulp slurp gulp
goes the troll
having a long cold refreshing drink
from the little windy stream

Stomp Crunch Stomp Crunch
goes the troll
avoiding the hidden holes and valleys
over the glacier face

Bang Clatter Bang Clatter
goes the troll
Jumping down the hillside
and starting little rockfalls

Rumble grumble rumble grumble
goes the troll
thinking of his next meal
that he will surely find soon

Then shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

as he waits...

round the next bend

for...


YOU!

For people who do like Trolls.. and like puppets (maybe one for the kids)
I have seen it recommended to go to the Estonian State Puppet theatre (although never been myself)
Anyway they do the troll boy which is described here :)
