whilst you are having all your fun please spare a thought for me.
My tree is decked with tinsel and baubles by the score,
with lots of multi-coloured lights I couldn't ask for more.
I love this festive time of year, I adore my pride of place,
my elegant dress of organza my wings of golden lace.
Please listen to your fairy and let me have some fun,
and move this flipping Christmas tree from up my flipping bum!

Nicely done. I like the sweetly flowing, lightly rhyming rhythm with the snap at the end.
There is a certain amount of satisfaction in being part of a Holiday presentation, but the Christmas Fairy says it for most of us, that we do want to just get down off the pedestal or stage and make merry with all others at some point. She says it well that having to be "on" all the time can be a real pain in the... !

I am your Christmas fairy
sat on top of the Christmas tree,
whilst you are having all your fun
please spare a thought for me.
My tree is decked with tinsel
and baubles by the score,
with lots of multi-coloured lights
I couldn't ask for more.
I love this festive time of year
I adore my pride of place,
my elegant dress of organza
my wings of golden lace.
Please listen to your fairy
and let me have some fun,

I think this delightful poem would read much easier if it were written out in poem form like above. Although it does not influence my judging if left as is either. Just thought I’d throw it out there for you. I think this write is quite clever and the ending… AWESOME
I am putting this in the finalist area, nice work! I enjoyed, thanks for entering my contest and well wishes to you

Thanks for your comments i'm just getting used to a computer and didn't know how to write it has you have done. The way you have done it would have been my preferred choice. I have had a bit more experience on my comouter since writing and now know what button to press. I wrote this for my children one christmas.
