if fairies may.

Posted on by

heading to our longtime friends’ fairy castle house

for an early christmas celebration 

on a cold, snowy night

 lots of warmth inside

food, drink, cheer, stories,

meetings, memories 

singing with the piano

twelve days of christmas

part of each room

sang a different number

everyone tried

some got lost

some forgot

some sang lots

some sang little

 piano played on

all were laughing.

“Lady, dear, if Fairies may / For a moment lay aside /

Cunning tricks and elfish play, / ‘Tis at happy Christmas-tide.”

-Lewis Carroll, capturing fairies joining the Christmas spirit.

    • Well luckily I was one of the 8 maids a milking group with 3 others who had a good sense of timing and strong memories and handled being maids, in light of being male. I feel our room really was on it!
