12 DAYS OF A SHIFTER’S CHRISTMAS
"The
Twelve Days of Christmas" is a cumulative song, meaning that each
verse is built on top of the previous verses. There are twelve verses, each
describing a gift given by "my true love" on one of the twelve days
of Christmas...and so forth, until the last verse:
“On the twelfth
day of Christmas, My true love sent to me:
12. Twelve lords
a-leaping
11. Eleven
pipers piping
10. Ten ladies
dancing
9. Nine drummers
drumming
8. Eight maids’
a-milking
7. Seven swans
a-swimming
6. Six geese
a-laying,
5. Five gold
rings
4. Four colly
birds
3. Three French
hens
2. Two turtle
doves
1. And a
partridge in a pear tree.
Yeah, that is
such a catchy tune. Don’t you agree?
BUT…we are going to do this Shifter-Style.
Now, what in the
dickens would a shifter give his true love?
To enter this
contest, rewrite this tune (in either point of view) of what a shifter would
give to his true love or a human would give to his shifter mate.
All
twelve
days must be listed.
