The Fable Man

The fable man, the fable man,
The one of many tales,
Stories of a magic pan,
And shields made of lizard scales.

Yetis from icey caves,
Knights that slay dragons,
People who rise from their graves,
Boys that live in wagons.

The fable man, the fable man,
Yes, the only one,
Who found a sapling in a can,
And and left it the sun.

He brought joy to his audience,
Sitting around the fire,
His chest puffed with confidence,
Only to inspire.
