Faeries and Elves In the Woods

My cousins came home regaling us with stories about the fey. 
They had seen faeries, elves, brownies and gargoyles in the woods.
They are dancing and singing, there is a happy feeling of warm play!
They were selling beautiful Christmas ornaments along with the foods.

We ran back there and noted they also had plums, raisins and berries.
We bought our fill, and returned to Grandma’s house happy and gay.
Did they also have cobblers, cakes and pies, some filled with cherries?
We were not sure, but resolved to run back to see the very next day!

I'm absolutely certain some live in my meadow, next to the woodland, Caren. I know, for sure, that one day there will be berries and the next day they are gone!

It is the brownies, the wood nymphs and the faeries for sure; I can feel it.
