Dear fellow readers For those who have just joined goanet, this is a follow-up poem to Goanet Digest, Vol 6, Issue 839, Topic 11, titled "Appeal for evidence - Ding dong at UK Goan fiesta".
On the twelveth day of autumn Kingfisher whispered to me no bounty, no bird song Brazil and Nut look like being set free evidence looks lacking, a real ding dong mystery So far, all we have got is 12 nodding dogs 11 big fat cats 10 grunting pigs 9 cows, moo moo 8 mining birds 7 slippery fish 6 slimy lizards 5 cobras, hiss hiss 4 great white sharks 3 laughing hyenas 2 dancing chimpanzees 1 frog, kiss kiss and a handmaiden performing katti fugdi - the coconut dance Melvyn Fernandes Thornton Heath, Surrey, United Kingdom 12 September 2011
