My first is an arm, then we shift
to my second an old christmas gift,
My third is one way
of stacking up hay
and the answer is this-get my drift?
Okay. This is decidedly wrong, but "limerick" is my answer.
Here's why.
An arm is a limb. First syllable, lim.
An old Christmas gift is "myrrh", one of the oldest Christmas gifts ever. So myrrh. Lim myrrh.
Then, for the third syllable, I would hate to stack hay, so I would certainly say "ick."
Therefore, we have LimbMyrrhIck, or, as it would be pronounced, Limerick.
Well done Zex!
That's correct except for the third syllable. Look up rick in the dictionary.
The job might be "icky" zex but "hayrick" is the the word- well done
limb-myrrh- rick it is
