The Christmas Fayre
Yesterday we went to the Christmas Fayre which was being held in the community centre on our estate. How come when you go to these you end up spending a fortune on stuff that you didn’t want or get caught up in gambling on the tombola or bottle raffle?
The Christmas Fayre
Today I emptied my pockets
At the local Christmas Fayre
Smiling ladies sitting expectantly
Flogging festive trinkets everywhere
Novelties and homemade scarves
Tantalisingly teetering on table tops
A slice of cake and a coffee
To make this all worthwhile
An enticing tombola ticket
Come on you Lady Luck
Yippee I’ve won something
Yes something, quite something
Not sure quite what it is...
Unabated I try the bottle raffle
Yippee I’ve won something
Something in a box to drink I think!
Only there for half an hour
But long enough to fill a bag
A bag of stuff I’ll never need
But all in a good cause
My Christmas good deed
A charity for stray cats indeed!
