Joseph May Poet Couplet

Golden Rings

On the first day of Christmas I asked her to marry me
  And to her I pledged all of my love

  With a lifetime together to spend
  We'd be like love birds then

  5 golden rings to her I'd give
  And geese of gold as long as she lives

  Then I'd give her 7 swans
  And 8 maids singing Christmas songs

   All the ladies would be dancing
  And  their paramours would be romancing

  And the piper would play yuletide songs 
  As the little drummer boy plays along
