The ogres were brutish and loutish and loud.
Bullish and boorish, parading and proud.
Destroying the swamplands with black hobnail boots.
Glaring and tearing up trees from their roots.
But one of the ogres stood out from the crowd.
His boots not so heavy. His voice, not so loud.
Ogre is different, and longs for something more than just anger and destruction. So, when a chance encounter with a protective mama bird prompts a huge reaction, things immediately change. Will he stay true to his path? And what will happen to the rest of the ogres?
