Day 73: I think I have perfected the lyrics after several years of trying to get the last line of the chorus to scan properly.
The Holly and the Ivy,
Both as invasives curs'd,
Of all the shrubbery in our woods,
These two are just the worst.
Oh, the rising of the sap and
The spreading of the seeds!
A little bit of herbicide
Is all a person needs.
And a Merry Christmas to you and yours from your friendly neighbourhood naturalist and her small Tippy-child!
