Grandfather left for Zlatitsa,
and lost his glove.
There she played in the field
little mouse Grizana,
the glove it saw
and it warmed up inside.
There it goes, wet and scared
runs Zayo from the forest.
It stops him on the dusty road
the grandfather glove.
- Who snuggles up in the heat there? –
asks Long-eared Rabbit…
- I am a tiny Grizana.
Who are you, so I'm afraid?
– I am Zayo Srednogorski,
I hide from choral words -
said Rabbit timidly
and asked cautiously:
- In this warm glove
peace will it find
my timid soul?
- Come in, I'm bored alone! –
Grizana said melodiously.
Lisa is coming a little later.
(What is it without her?)
He stood up in the middle of the road
and sneers slyly.
– Who is in that glove? –
asks the cunning maid.
– A tiny Grizana mouse
here he rests in warmth,
Zayo Bayo Srednogorski,
hidden from bad people's words.
Well, your grace, who is it?
and why bother us!
- I am the golden fox
and I want to be warm
in your wonder glove.
- Enter, though we are many,
but you are our relative!
The Wolf left the forest
on work to the villages.
He stops on the dusty road -
hungry and scary.
The glove he looks,
leans down to sniff it
but he feels her sewing
and he then asks:
- Whose scared soul
hide in that glove?
- Here he rests in the warmth
tiny Grizana mouse,
Zayo Bayo Srednogorski,
hidden from bad people's words,
the golden fox.
Well, your grace, who is it?
and why bother us?
- I am a Wolf from the Balkans,
I wish to be your guest...
- Enter, though we are many,
but you are our relative!
After a while, everyone realizes
whole earth shaken –
comes shaggy Metzana (the Bear),
he peered into the glove
and bravely called out:
- Whose scared soul
hide in that glove?
- Here he rests in the warmth
tiny Grizana mouse,
Zayo Bayo Srednogorski,
hidden from bad people's words,
the golden fox,
Kumcho Valcho from the Balkans,
guest at our invitation.
Well, your grace, who is it?
and why bother us?
– I am shaggy Metzana,
I wish to be your guest.
- Enter, though we are many,
but you are our relative!
They gathered in comradeship,
positioned themselves royally
in the drum glove
and they opened a word...
Soon grandfather from Zlatitsa
went back to look
his warm glove.
Besides, if he doesn't find it,
grandma will yell at him...
And walking and coughing,
in the middle of the road he stops
and his soul subsides,
his heart trembles —
looks, looks and does not believe:
his glove sews
mouse head is submitted
and a fox tail,
and a piece of earring,
a piece of bear coat,
someone's sharp teeth are shining…
- What are you thinking, man! –
grandfather said to himself
and roll up his sleeves
and struck with the club,
and repeat and repeat…
He met him at home in the evening
his old grandmother:
grandfather hunting with the car drives
and smiled even from ear to ear,
he smokes the pipe...
The fabulous photo moments were captured in the "Fairy Tale Forest" park in the town of Rakovski.

How do you get to the city of Rakovski?
Rakovski is a city in southern Bulgaria, Plovdiv district, the administrative center of Rakovski municipality.
It is named after the prominent Bulgarian national revolutionary Georgi Stoykov Rakovski, known as Georgi Sava Rakovski.
The city was created in 1966 by the merger of three villages - General Nikolaevo, Sekirovo and Parcevich, in the past called Kalachlii, Baltaja and Alifakakh respectively.
The villages are inhabited by the descendants of Paulicians who converted to Catholicism in the 17th - 19th centuries.
Rakovski stands at:
161 kilometers (about 1 hour and 47 minutes by car) from the capital
29 kilometers (about 38 minutes by car) from the city of Plovdiv
345 kilometers (about 3 hours and 55 minutes by car) from the city of Varna
