To be honest, I'd forgotten all about the festive competition until a few days ago. I've been working on a collaboration over the weekend (more of that later) but hadn't got a solo entry.
I've gone for a twist on Silent Night, based on what's happening now in the country where it all began, so it's not a turkey and tinsel happy number I'm afraid
Gift from the West
No Wrapping paper or gift tags
Delivered at lightning speed
Take cover – grab the children
No wise men but a visit from a drone
Nothing can pierce the iron dome
Sidewinder, python, Jericho
Raining down on those below
Not such a silent night
Darkness turns to daylight
Return fire, tracer light
Not such a silent night
Here's a gift from the West
No Wrapping paper gift tags, ribbons and bows
No wise men
Get ready for your visit from a drone
Not such a silent night
Darkness turns to daylight
Return fire, tracer light
Not such a silent night
