DAY 2661: Happy Leap Day. Write about something that occurs every 4 years.

Every four years there is an extra day in Ayyam-i-Ha. Baha'is across the world Ayyam-i-Ha between sunset February 25 and sunset March 1. These are days of joyful celebration, gift giving, partying, and extra volunteering for Baha'is across the world.

"Happy Ayyam-i-Ha" 

On the first day of Ayyam-I-Ha,
I gave my true love,
The good news of Baha'u'llah.

On the second day of Ayyam-I-Ha,
I gave my true love,
A cloth bound Kitab-I-Iqan,
And the good news of Baha'u'llah.

On the third day of Ayyam-I-Ha,
I gave my true love,
A white stone with the Greatest Name,
A cloth bound Kitab-I-Iqan,
And the good news of Baha'u'llah.

On the fourth day of Ayyam-I-Ha,
I gave my true love,
A blue prayer book,
A white stone with the Greatest Name,
A cloth bound Kitab-I-Iqan,
And the good news of Baha'u'llah.

On the fifth day of Ayyam-I-Ha,
I gave my true love,
A gold bound Kitab-I-Aqdas,
A blue prayer book,
A white stone with the Greatest Name,
A cloth bound Kitab-I-Iqan,
And the good news of Baha'u'llah.
