I wrote this short story for FAE magazine ( http://www.faemagazine.com/ ). The story, titled "Oaken Mead" is featured in the Spring 2015 issue . The cover artwork of the same title, by my wife ©Jasmine Becket-Griffith, is also featured in the Spring 2015 issue. The story is innocent and playful. The melody and the canter of the story displays my childish side. In essence, it is very much a fable. I hope you enjoy!
