12 days of Christmas

[ivygreen]

On the 12th day of Christmas, my customer said to me:

I need
Twelve feet of roping,
Eleven potted poinsettias,
Ten silver centerpieces,
Nine long and lows,
Eight dozen roses,
Seven gourmet baskets,
Six yards of cellophane,
Five golden bows,
Four boxwood trees,
Three fresh arrangements,
Two ugly doves,
and can you have all there by 3 ????

 

[Holly]

What a great twist on an old fav!

I'm going to have that tune running through my head for the rest of the night!

 

[Doug Hatcher]

What about 1.

We went from 2 ugly doves
to get it there by 3:00


One Poinsettia (they seem to be missing)

Just going with the rhyme of the song--Tree/ three ---a little holiday simple mindedness!

Ivygreen your version is best.

When I worked through it with the back up singers and ensemble I see your version works best.

Quite clever,
