Rhyme For Our Times

On the first day of Christmas My true love gave to me A blender with a guarantee. On the second day of Christmas

My true love gave to me A set of kitchen scales And two books of recipes. On the third day of Christmas

My true love gave to me Three tins of soup

A pound of Brussels sprouts And a massive frozen turkey.

On the fourth day of Christmas

My true love gave to me Four non-stick pans Three serving spoons Two pounds of flour

One jar of jam

With a tin of breakfast tea. On the fifth day of Christmas I gave his presents back And sent him packing!
