Happy Thanksgiving to all!

[Sandy H.]

TWAS THE NIGHT OF THANKSGIVING

BUT I JUST COULDN'T SLEEP.

I TRIED COUNTING BACKWARDS,

I TRIED COUNTING SHEEP.

THE LEFTOVERS BECKONED -

THE DARK MEAT AND WHITE,

BUT I FOUGHT THE TEMPTATION

WITH ALL OF MY MIGHT.

TOSSING AND TURNING WITH ANTICIPATION,

THE THOUGHT OF A SNACK BECAME INFATUATION.

SO I RACED TO THE KITCHEN, FLUNG OPEN THE DOOR,
AND GAZED AT THE FRIDGE, FULL OF GOODIES GALORE.

GOBBLED UP TURKEYAND BUTTERED POTATOES,
PICKLES AND CARROTS, BEANS AND TOMATOES.

I FELT MYSELF SWELLING SO PLUMP AND SO ROUND,
'TIL ALL OF A SUDDEN, I ROSE OFF THE GROUND.

I CRACKED THROUGH THE CEILING,
FLOATING INTO THE SKY,

WITH A MOUTHFUL OF PUDDING,

AND A HANDFUL OF PIE.

BUT I MANAGED TO YELL, AS I SOARED PAST THE TREES.....
HAPPY EATING TO ALL -

PASS THE CRANBERRIES, PLEASE.
MAY YOUR STUFFING BE TASTY,

MAY YOUR TURKEYBE PLUMP.
MAY YOUR POTATOES N'GRAVY

HAVE NARY A LUMP.
MAY YOUR YAMS BE DELICIOUS,

MAY YOUR PIES TAKE THE PRIZE.
MAY YOUR THANKKSGIVING DINNER STAY OFF OF YOUR THIGHS!

MAY YOUR THANKSGIVING BE BLESSED!

Hug, Sandy
