In a town once lively and bright, lived Granny Ogre out of sight. Among the crumbled walls and lanes, she called this dusty place her domain.
With a greenish hue and a heart so kind, Granny Ogre was one of a kind. Her eyes gleamed like twinkling stars, her laugh traveled near and far.
Each morning she'd hum a tune, as the sun arose and kissed the moon. Birds would chirp and squirrels would play, ready to start another day.
“Good Morning!” she'd say with a cheerful cheer, to every creature far and near. “Let’s start this day with a joyous hooray! Together we’ll make it a jolly journey, hey hey!”
She’d cook a pot of soup so grand, with carrots, beans, and spices at hand. The scent would waft through every nook, inviting all to take a look.
Boom! Bang! Crash! Oh, what a clatter! But Granny knew it didn't matter. For if anyone stumbled and hit a wall, she’d mend their bumps, both big and small.
She told them tales of far-off places, of knights, dragons, and hidden spaces. Eyes sparkled and ears perked, as Granny's stories always worked.
When the night’s curtain began to drop, and the stars twinkled from their top. She’d tuck each creature into bed, and place soft dreams into their head.
"Sweet dreams," she'd whisper in a soothing tone, "You're never, ever alone." And as they drifted off to sleep, Granny Ogre’s promise they'd keep.
And in that quiet, abandoned town, with every whisper, every sound, lived a love so pure and forever profound, thanks to the stories and bonds they found.
Granny Ogre’s tales filled with glee, taught them lessons, just wait and see: That kindness matters the most of all, in every creature, big or small.
So, if you ever hear a rhyme in the still of the night, with tales of ogres splendid and bright, know it's Granny Ogre keeping her lore, making every heart cherish more.
