Filched from
lanitha, and appropriate, because a funny "12 Days of Christmas" was read at the University of Memphis's School of Music Holiday Concert I went to this afternoon.
The concert was great--trombone and string ensembles, the symphonic band, saxophone quartet, chamber choir, University Singers and Jazz Singers. I sat next to a friend on one side and a row of children on the other side--their eyes were so wide, especially when the narrator read the part of the funny "12 Days" about all the bird and cow poop in the house. ;)
Without further ado, the meme:
On the twelfth day of Christmas,
verlindahenning sent to me...
Twelve labyrinths drumming
Eleven cats piping
Ten castles a-leaping
Nine antiques baking
Eight pilgrimages a-walking
Seven candles a-writing
Six holidays a-reading
Five bo-o-o-ooks
Four movies
Three healing services
Two liturgical seasons
...and an u2 in a stephen fry.
