Nine Ladies Dancing and All That Jazz!

in #pictures4 years ago (edited)

On the ninth day of Christmas,
My true love gave to me,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids-a-milking,
Seven swans-a-swimming,
Six geese-a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

Oh, but I have gotten all the way to nine, only to find that I must eat crow. A black one that is. According to Snopes, which is a religion all of its own, The Twelve Days of Christmas have nothing to do with the good book.

Sigh I knew it would come to this... Oh, yes I did.

According to their records, "It is possible that "The Twelve Days of Christmas" has been confused with a song called "A New Dial" (also known as "In Those Twelve Days"), which dates to at least 1625 and assigns religious meanings to each of the twelve days of Christmas (but not for the purposes of teaching a catechism."

So there you have it. All you got today was nine ladies dancing, kicking it high. For no reason at all

You can see beyond the blur, but, can you imagine beyond the field of vision, where there is certainty in the anticipation of things to come? That is what I feel like when I think of Steemit. I feel confident that things will be better than people think. I anticipate good things to come.

I listen to the symphony that runs through my head as I imagine the poetic beauty of the rose. Most enchanting.

Exquisiteness, intricate and beautiful

A flower always, to color my day.

Whenever I come upon a smile in my day, it brightens even the lightest of days

Even
after
all this time
the Sun never says to the Earth,

"You owe me."

Look
what happens
with a love like that,
it lights the whole sky.

Have a most fabulous day!

I found a love for me
Darling just dive right in
And follow my lead
Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love

Not knowing what it was I will not give you up this time But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own And in your eyes you're holding mine Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight

Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets To carry love, to carry children of our own We are still kids, but we're so in love Fighting against all odds I know we'll be alright this time Darling, just hold my hand Be my girl, I'll be your man I see my future in your eyes

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song I have faith in what I see Now I know I have met an angel in person And she looks perfect I don't deserve this You look perfect tonight

Oh that is a great tune. Gives me the warm fuzzies whenever I hear it! I hope you are right about Steem/it. It seems like Voice is skirting the whole earn money for posting deal. I think that may just leave Steemit as the last best choice. I am not imnterested in simply putting my comment up, I want the money, honey!

It is a great tune, isn't it? Bocelli really adds a nice touch to an already beautiful song. How much will you wager that you are the only one who reads the post all the way down? As a matter of fact, I am surprised you did as I rarely change the bottom.

Voice has been skirting the issue since day one if you remember correctly. Last best choice? That makes it sound like a backhanded compliment.

I know you are interested in anything but the money Mr. @old-guy-photos. Would it surprise you that I am only interested in paying you?

I read every word. Twice. I never know when I can learn something new. You know I love your content. I am your biggest fan from way back.

I believe that it is right and proper how Steemit tries to reward authors versus how Zuck takes it all. Here's hoping for a good 2020 for our fine site.

Haha! There is no fooling you!

You know, I'm not seeing your posts under the "New" powerhousecreatives tag - is there a reason for that, since you have the tag in this post?

Anyway, I just looked it up, and the cost for the twelve gifts in 2019 comes to $38,993.59! Got that info here, where it breaks the gifts and the cost for each in a little list. Looks like a radio station in your area?

I think better times are on the way and 2020 will be glorious! Have a wonderful day!

Maybe they fired me and I don't know it? I will have to check it out. I am not using the hive tag, perhaps that is it.

I did see the cost of the gifts!! He must be a true lover, yes? Last year wasn't too shabby, but, if fate will give me a better 2020, I'm in! Thanks for stopping by and saying hello!

It is not one they play on the radio or if they do, I haven't heard it. I think it gives the song an extra something, in my opinion. :)
