On the Twelve
Days of Christmas, My True Love Gave to Me . . .

Dearest
Dave,
I
went to the door today, and the postman delivered a partridge in a pear tree.
This was a delightful gift! I couldn't have been more surprised or pleased
darling!
With
truly the deepest love,
Agnes

Dearest
Dave,
Today
the postman brought me yet another of your sweet gifts. The two turtule doves
that arrived today are adorable, and I'm delighted by your thoughtful and
generous ways.
With
all of my love,
Your

Dearest
Dave,
You've
truly been too kind! I must protest; I don't deserve such generosity. The
thought of getting three French hens amazes me. Yet, I am not surprised--what
more should I expect from such a nice person.
Love,
Agnes

Dear
Dave,
Four
calling birds arrived in the mail today. They are truly nice but don't you
think that enough is enough? You are being too romantic.
Affectionately,
Agnes

Dearest
darling Dave,
It
was a surprise to get five golden rings! I now have one for every finger. You
truly are impossible darling, yet oh how I love it! Quite frankly, all of
those squarking birds from the previous days were starting to get on my
nerves. Yet, you managed to come through with a beautiful valuable gift!
All
my love,
Agnes

Dear
Dave,
When
I opened my door, there were actually six geese a-laying on my front steps.
So you're back to the birds again, huh? Those geese are dear, but where will
I keep them? The neighbors are complaining, and I am unable to sleep with all
the racket. Please stop dear.
Cordially,
Agnes

Dave,
What
is with you and those stupid birds!? Seven swans a-swimming!! What kind of
sick joke is this!!?? There are bird droppings everywhere! They never shut
up, and I don't get any sleep!!! I'm a nervous wreck! It's not funny you
weirdo, so stop with the birds.
Sincerely,
Agnes

O.K.
wise guy,
The
birds were bad enough. Now what do you expect me to do with eight maids
a-milking? If that's not bad enough, they had to bring their cows!! The front
lawn was completely ruined by them, and I can't move in my own house! Just
lay off me or you'll be sorry!

Hey
loser,
What
are you? You must be some kind of sadist!! Now there are nine pipers playing,
and they certainly do play! They haven't stopped chasing those maids since
they got here! The cows are getting upset, and they're stepping all over
those screeching birds. The neighbors are getting up a petition to evict me,
and I'm going out of my mind!
You'll
get yours!

You
rotten scum!!!
There
are now ten ladies dancing! There is only one problem with that! They're
dancing twenty-four hours a day all around me with the pipers upsetting the
cows and the maids. The cows can't sleep, and they are going to the bathroom
everywhere! The building commissioner has subpoenaed me to give cause as to
why the house shouldn't be condemned! I can't even think of a reason! You
creep! I'm sicking the police on you!
One
who means it!

Listen
you evil, sadistic, maniac!
What's
with the eleven lords-a-leaping?!? They are leaping across the rooms breaking
everything and even injuring some of the maids! The place smells, is an
absolute mad house, and is about to be condemned! At least the birds are
quiet; they were trampled to death by the cows. I hope you are satisfied--you
rotten vicious worthless piece of garbage!
Your
sworn enemy,
Agnes
