The twelve days of Christmas
I started this song 3 years ago, got up to verse 5, and then gave up. Now, being
totally lacking in shame, I have decided to complete it.
On the first day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...a bishop in a pear tree.
On the second day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...two turkeys' books, ...
On the third day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...three old hens, ...
On the fourth day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...four cardinals, ...
On the fifth day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...five Dubia, ...
On the sixth day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...six priests a-preying, ...
On the seventh day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...seven Synners Synning, ...
On the eighth day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...eight clowns a-circling, ...
On the ninth day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...nine Roches raging, ...
On the tenth day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...ten Pachamamas, ...
On the eleventh day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...eleven guards a-guarding, ...
Finally, on the twelfth day of Christmas my true love sent to me...
...twelve popes a-poping, ...
Two honest questions:
ReplyDeleteWhat will Austen Iver..something do when Pope Francis is no longer around?
And to avoid actually giving me heresy, what are "nuns on a bus"?
A political group who oppose a lot of Catholic teaching (e.g. on abortion).

Eccles, a Happy New Year, and many thanks for 'accompanying' us through the old one with your usual 'discernment'...
