The Faeries Christmas Tree (a Tanka)
Deep in the damp woods
Behind dewy leaves, I spied
Faeries dancing
And frolicking around their
Community’s Christmas tree
Vale: Shane MacGowan

A fine poem; two recordings of my long time favourite Christmas song; and a memory of Soho where I lived for several years.
