"'Twas The Night Of Thanksgiving"




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 and 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!!!!
