    Thumbs up 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 gobble 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 manage 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.

    and most of all-

    May your Thanksgiving be blessed!!
