My Twelve Days Of Christmas

We all know the traditional Twelve Days Of Christmas but read on for a fun and festive version..


On the FIRST day of Christmas my true love said to me  

"I'm glad we bought fresh turkey and a proper Christmas tree"


On the SECOND day of Christmas, much laughter could be heard.  

As we tucked into our turkey, a most delicious bird


On the THIRD day we entertained the people from next door.  

The turkey tasted just as good as it had the day before.


Day FOUR, relations came to stay: poor gran is looking old.  

We finished off the Christmas pud. And ate the turkey cold.


On the FIFTH day of Christmas, outside the snow flakes flurried.  

But we were nice and warm inside, so we ate the turkey curried.

 

On the SIXTH day, I must admit, the Christmas spirit died.

The children fought and bickered, we ate the turkey fried.

 

On the SEVENTH day of Christmas, my true love he did wince.

When he sat down at the table and was offered turkey mince.

 

Day EIGHT, and nerves were getting frayed, the dog had run for shelter

As I served up turkey pancakes, with a glass of Alka-Seltzer.

 

On the NINTH day our cat left home, by lunch time dad was blotto.  

He said he had to have a drink to face the turkey risotto.

 

By the TENTH day booze had gone,(except our home made brew)  

And as if that wasn't bad enough we suffered turkey stew.

 

On the ELEVENTH day of Christmas, the Christmas tree was moulting.  

The mince pies were as hard as rock and the turkey was revolting.

 

On the TWELFTH day, my true love had a smile upon his lips.    

The guests had gone, and the turkey too, so we dined on fish and chips.
