Fairie Tales... harvesting colours of joy

Fairie tales are dreams and people who dream (in every sense), lead themselves into the subconcious realms of conciousness itself.

These people suddenly realised that it is unknown to the supposed all-knowing being of human, how many grains of sand there are on this planet, let alone how many stars in infinity. So, they thought... there is such a thing as the unknown and we don't have all the answers!

They found themselves in places where the colours of joy and peril were enhanced to extremes.

They came back with the so-called "tails" (yes - tails) that even today and for ever more will grow in the forgotten crevises of our complicatedly simple minds.

One might come up with the usual prejudice and say "childish". But! My friends, what "childish" is, is the fearless ability to travel to these crevices and harvest these beautiful tails.

I would like to meet the person who first implied that fairies don't have tails let alone the ability to tell their tales. For (if I have understood this correctly) then one has given these stories (Rapunzel, The little Mermaid and so on) the name "Fairy Tale" because some silly people don't see fairies or magical creatures as facts let alone the stories they tell.

This is why I think that fairy tales should be called "factual (and very real) fairy adventures"!
