    A THANKSGIVING POEM

    '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.
    I gobbled up turkey
    And 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 crashed 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 turkey be plump.
    May your potatoes 'n gravy
    Have nary a lump,
    May your yams be delicious
    May your pies take the prize,
    May your Thanksgiving dinner
    Stay off of your thighs.

    May your Thanksgiving be blessed!!
