Default And another Thanksgiving poem!

I sat at the table, eager to eat
To have my fill, right at my seat

My father carved the Turkey
A wonderful sight
My mother asked me “dark meat or white”?

But just before my plate came near
My little dog Edgar pulled up from the rear

He jumped on the table in a single bound
Landing in the middle with nary a sound

He landed on my Turkey
One and all could see
And right there Edgar decided to pee

I shook in horror, I quaked in fright
But in the end, I knew Edgar was right

He’s just a dog, and did what dogs do
I could not be angry, but I told him to shoo

So mother cleaned the table, and discarded the Turkey
And in it's place we had beef jerky!
