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 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!!
Happy thanksgiving to all
