A Christmas Variation For Brendan, By Claire

The Final Verse:

On the twelfth day of Christmas,

My best friend gave to me:

Twelve bloggers blogging,

Eleven jumpers jumping,

Ten swimmers swimming,

Nine jokers joking,

Eight flowers flowering,

Seven painters painting,

Six skiiers skiing,

Fiiiive Haiiiiiry Harrrrres,

Four cleaning cleaners,

Three foxy foxes,

Two sneaking sneakers,

And a moon smiling sweetly at me!
