The 12 Dyes of Xmas or A "Hue'ltide Carol (Nonsense Doggerel)

      On the
first day of Xmas I
sent a gift to you…
dyed
"Christmas-Without-You-It's-A"
Blue.

     On the
second day, another (you'll 
never put this down!)…
dyed 
"Let's-Pretend-That-He-Is-Parson"
Brown.

     On the
third day, a further (I 
give because I can)…
dyed
"Tannenbaum-O-Tannenbaum"
Tan.

     On the
fourth day, one more (I pray my 
dogg'rel's not grown cold)…
dyed
"Rings-Six-Geese-A-Laying-Five"
Gold.

     On the
fifth day, a bonus, from
eBay, sight unseen…
dyed
"Sleeves-And-Who-Else-But-My-Lady"
Green.

     On the
sixth day of Xmas, (do not
open until Jan.) a
gift dyed
"Claus-I-Saw-Mommy-Kissing"
Xant’a.

     On the
seventh (you'll adore this – at
least I hope you might)…
it’s dyed
"Christmas-I Am-Dreaming-Of-A"
White.

     On the
eighth, an award (you cry: "This
guy is quite the joker!")…
dyed
"-Risthmas-Tree-O-Kristhmus-(sic)-Tree"
Ocher.

     On the
ninth day, a boon you’ll not, of
course, receive a bill fer…
dyed 
"Bells-It's-Xmas-In-The-City"
Silver.

    On the
tenth day, one dyed by me, right
in my kitchen sink…
dyed 
"At-Your-Nose-Jack-Frost-Is-Nip-..."
Pink.

     On the
eleventh (who inaugurates such
nonsense? Heaven knows!)…
one dyed -- no
lie! -- a "Lo-E'er-Blooming-How-A"
Rose.

     On the
twelfth day, one last gift, from 
me your Xmas Fairy…
dyed
"Cheeks-Like-Roses-Nose-Like-A"
Cherry...

     And so to
all a poetaster's "Very
Merry!"
