On the sixth day of Yule-tide my true love gave to me,
six sided crystals
Five Titan space-probe design options
Four record discs for the radio telescope
Three UV fluorescing samples
And two microscope slides
To go in my science laboratory.
Tani undulated happily through the water
Arm in arm with her true love
They squirted out of the heated submarine
Wearing heated suits
And ventured into a great cavern
In the seafloor of Enceladus
A tour guide flipped a switch
And the cavern filled with light
Light caught in towering crystals
Grown over centuries and uplifted
In this cavern
Six-sided crystals filled with light
Towering pillars
Dainty smaller crystals
Shining in the dark ocean.
Upon leaving Tani’s love bought her
A lovely six-sided crystal
To remember the day by.
And back in the lab Tani found
Five Titan space-probe design options
Four record discs for the radio telescope
Three UV fluorescing samples
And two microscope slides
To aid in her research.
