MONDAY NOVEMBER 25:
Partridge in
a Pear Tree
TUESDAY NOVEMBER 26:
Turtle
Doves
WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 27:
French
Hens
Today calls for a partridge for
your pear tree. Partridges are
tough catches, you see. The
bird flew the coop, leaving
nothing behind but some
sweet Bartlett pears, the very
best kind. Please bring non-
perishable food items today.
There might be turtle doves
coming your way; but we
want to avoid hands as
cold as clay. So instead of
searching for turtle doves, we
ask that you bring in some
gloves (or mittens) today.
The three French hens have to
clean their nest to help it look
the very best. Please bring
cleaning supplies such as
laundry/dish soap and paper
products today!

Calling
Birds
Golden
Rings
Geese a
Laying
Four calling birds speak
highly of you; you’re kind and
thoughtful, generous too. We
don’t like to grovel, but could
you please bring us a great
novel? Please bring in books
for all ages today.
Five golden rings would be
the normal gift, but we would
like to try a twist. Please
help us with Santa’s list by
bringing new, unwrapped
children’s toys today!
Six geese a laying were an
interesting sight, till one of
them squawked and they all
took to flight. When they left
their nest, it was in the dark of
night. So please help us with
their terrible plight. Please
bring in personal care items
today.

TUESDAY DECEMBER 3:
Swans a
Swimming
Maids a
Milking
Ladies
Dancing
Remember no speaking or
you’ll spoil the fun. We’re
almost there, we’re halfway
done. Finding swans in
December sure gave us a
riddle, so we looked for
something simple: Little bums
can be breezy, but bringing
diapers is just so easy.
Please bring in packages
of diapers today.
On the eighth day of giving,
we are still busy as bees. Eight
maids a milking, nowhere
did we see…But there at the
Hermiston Warming Station
we spy a few needs. Snacks,
blankets, and hats, for these
items they surely would be
pleased. Please bring in
non-perishables, portable
food, blankets, and other
warm items.
Nine kiddos dancing, they
put on quite a show. Their
feet got so tired, so wouldn’t
you know. We are requesting
some socks or shoes to help
comfort their little toes.
WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 4:
THURSDAY DECEMBER 5:
FRIDAY DECEMBER 6:
Lords a
Leaping
Ten lords a leaping would be
an awesome gift, but they got
stuck jumping over a big ole
snowdrift. But, we do have
some pets in need, at the
local humane society. Please
bring pet food or supplies
today.
Pipers
Piping
Eleven pipers piping outside
would be cold, to leave them
on the doorstep would be
too bold. We are hoping you
could be an angel for two
more days, we’d just love
to sing your praise. Please
bring sweaters and coats for
individuals of all ages.

Drumming
Please help us go out with a
bang; the final day of giving
has arrived. On our ending
night, one dozen drummers
would be a splendid sight.

pencils, pens, and paper, to
help our kids write.
