NaPoWriMo Day 12

 Hello!

The prompt for today is to write a poem that's a tall tale.  I was having some trouble coming up with an idea, and decided to take inspiration from the Zelda game I'm playing.  A lot of what happens in those games, if taken out of context, sounds a little unbelievable and exaggerated.  So I figured it would work as a tall tale.  Enjoy!


Down into the depths I go
with Zelda by my side.
We find a mummy sealed down there
then the ground cracks open wide.

Zelda slips and starts to fall
I can not grab her hand. 
She disappears in golden light
and I wake up in a new land. 

A broken sword is all I have
as I try to find my way. 
What's happening in Hyrule now?
Do I need to save the day?


Thanks for reading!
