CHRISTMAS FAIRY

CHRISTMAS FAIRY

I am a little fairy
On tap o' the Christmas Tree
It's no' a job I fancy
Well how would you like tae be me

A tarted up wi' tinsel
It's enough to mak ye boak
An a couple o' jaggy branches
Rammed up the back o' your frock

An' these wee lights a'roon me
I canna get my sleep
An' there's the yearly visit
Fae Santa - Big fat creep!

On Christmas Day I'm stuck up here
While you're a' wirin' in
An' naebody says "Hey you up there
Could you go a slug o' gin?

It's nae joke bein' a fairy
The job's beyond belief
You've got to go roon' the wean's beds
An' lift their rotten teeth

But o' a' the joabs a fairy gets
An' I've mentioned only some
The worst is sitting up a tree
Wi' pine needles up yir bum

When a' the fairies meet again
By the light of' the silvery moon
Ye can tell the Christmas fairies
They're the wans that canna sit doon

The Christmas tree's a bonny sight
As the firelight softly flickers
But think o' me I'm stuck up here
Wi' needles in my knickers

So soon as Christmas time's right by
An' I stop bein' sae full o' cheer
I'll get awa back tae Fairyland
An' I'll see yous a' next year.

Aw that is lovely. Pray that they'll get an artificial tree next year.

thats a great wee poem.

[nungate]

I have a small tree in which the branches are all pink feathers? Would that be easier on your "disposition?"

[quinie]

Liked the poem,maggiebee! Do you know who wrote it,please?

[daisya]

I like that, very good. This one comes to mind too when seeing things about Fairy a top of the tree

A Christmas Fairy

A fairy has a hard time,
Up where the tinsel flickers;
A wand of gold stuck in her hand,
A fir tree up her knickers!

[maggiebee]
