A Fairytale or Not

Many A Year Has Past Since The Day Of My Birth Suffice To Say That I Am As Old As My Heart And As Young As The Winter Snow.

I Have To Pass A Small Coppice At The Side Of The Road That Boasts A Mound In Its Centre. Perhaps It Was From Out Of This Mound That A Little Man Appeared I Cannot Say.

I Must Admit That These Sightings Are So Very Rare And That To Witness Such A Sight Is Magnificent Indeed. It Has Never Accorded Me To Put My Experiences To Paper.
