The day was getting worse;
The elves had gone on strike
So the presents weren’t being wrapped!
Two of the reindeer were missing,
Not came back from their summer hols
And two more were pregnant!
Mrs Santas Mum was coming to stay
‘For a few days’,
That would go on for weeks!
Santa was getting more depressed
So went to have a scotch,
But found the bottle empty.
OK coffee will have to do.
Dropped the jar,
The coffee went all over the place.
As he was sweeping up
The doorbell went
And there was a beautiful fairy
With a Christmas Tree under her arm.
“What would you like me to do with this?”
She asked quite pleasantly,
And that is why there is a fairy
Sitting on the top of a Christmas Tree

- Comment from author about the poem: OK it is December so I have mentioned the 'C' work in this poem. The group on the video are The Casablanca Steps, we have seen them many times in the passed County Shows in the UK, they are very entertaining and well worth watching if you get a chance.

The video and the write have set me up for the day - great fun Andy. Will look up the group later on youtube. I guess there must be more videos of them.
Yes there are more videos of them. One time when we saw them I got my camera out and as I started to take a shot, the trombonist said to the group "Stop, pose for the picture!" they all stopped in the position that they were in, I took the picture and they started playing again exactly from where they stopped. A very good group in interacting with the audience.
festive fun for sure.. now there just has to be a moral in there somewhere, surely..
Thanks Neville.
A fine write Gold.Whoops, could be bit swoony for me, where that fairy ended up, or at least how she got to end up on top of the tree! heehee.
You may never know Orchi.
Should I know? Should I find out? Or would it be too much for me? lol.
Such a noteworthy read Andy - - that group have won my vote too.
A fun-filled write that makes jest of the mishaps that oftentimes occur in life. You've outdone yourself on this one Goldfinch.
Thanks for posting. 🙂
Thank you Tamara, you are most kind.
You're welcome.
Andy,
Murphy’s Law at its best...
And the fairy saved the day!
I enjoyed the read and the Charleston!
Thank you for sharing.
My love to Joyce and you!
