Okay here are the rules.....no comments....just two lines added by each poster.
Here is the first one from me:
On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me
One chicken neath an African Baobab Tree.

On the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me
Two newborn Indonesian piglets
And one chicken neath an African Baobab Tree.

I find not direction in the readings of those with whom my eccentricities are similar, but rather validation.
My only solace is that I find a peaceful place where I might be resigned to my depriving loneliness.

I'm not adding, just commenting... when I was a youth and living as an expat in Arabia we had a take on the Twelve Days. While some of the references weren't very festive (seven camels spitting), the first day was "a falcon in a palm tree" - great imagery.
This reminded me of that silly song, and some really great times we had growing up as oil brats in Dhahran in the '60s and '70s!

If you think you're too small to make a difference try sleeping in a closed room with a mosquito, or give kiva.org a try.
