Dearest John:

I went to the door today and the postman delivered a partridge in a pear tree. What a delightful gift. I couldn’t have been more surprised.

With dearest love and affection, Agnes

December 15th

Dearest John:

Today the postman brought your very sweet gift. Just imagine, two turtle doves. I’m just delighted at your very thoughtful gift. They are just adorable.

All my love, Agnes

December 16th

Dear John:

Oh, aren’t you the extravagant one! Now I must protest. I don’t deserve such generosity. Three French hens. They are just darling but I must insist, you’re just too kind.

Love, Agnes

December 17th

Today the postman delivered four calling birds. Now really! They are beautiful, but don’t you think enough is enough? You’re being too romantic.

Affectionately, Agnes

December 18th

Dearest John:

What a surprise! Today the postman delivered five golden rings. One for each finger. You’re just impossible, but I love it.

Frankly, John, all those squawking birds were beginning to get on my nerves.

All my love, Agnes

December 19th

Dear John:

When I opened the door there were actually six geese-a-laying on my front steps. You’re back to the birds again, huh? Those geese are huge. Where will I ever keep them?

The neighbors are complaining and I can’t sleep through the racket. Please stop!

Cordially, Agnes

December 20th

John:

What’s with you and those birds? Seven swans-a-swimming. What kind of joke is this? There’s bird do-do all over the house and they never stop the racket.

I’m a nervous wreck and I can’t sleep all night. It’s not funny! Stop with those birds.

Sincerely, Agnes

December 21st

Okay Buster:

I think I prefer the birds. What am I going to do with eight maids-a-milking? It’s not enough with all those birds and eight maids-a-milking, but they had to bring their own cows.

There is poop all over the lawn and I can’t move into my own house. Just lay off.

Hey:

What are you? Some kind of sadist? Now there’s nine ladies dancing. The cows are upset and are stepping all over those screeching birds. No wonder they screech. What am I going to do?

The neighbors have started a petition to evict me. You’ll get yours.

From Ag

December 23rd

You Creep!

What’s with the 10 lords a-leaping on those maids and ladies? I don’t know why I call them ladies. Now the cows have got diarrhea. My living room is a river of poop. The commissioner of buildings has subpoenaed me to give cause why the building shouldn’t be condemned. I’m calling the police on you.

One who means it, Ag

December 24th

Listen Idiot:

Now there’s 11 pipers piping, but they play more than their pipes. They’ve been taking a keen interest in those maids and ladies. Meanwhile, the lords have run through all the women and are showing an interest in the cows. All 23 of the birds have been trampled to death. I hope you’re satisfied, you rotten swine.

Your sworn enemy, Miss Agnes McCallister

December 25th

From the law offices Taeker, Spedar, and Baegar

Merry Christmas.
