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.
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!!

Rebecca ~ Now how cute was that! Thanks and I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving yourself.
Rebecca - This is just fun ! Nothing like the lure of leftovers. They really are my favorite. May your Thanksgiving be a poetic joy
Oh and then there were leftovers........yummy! I love the day after almost as much! Hope you're feeling lots lots better! Big hug coming your way! Anna
I love it! How creative!!!!! Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!
Rebecca,
I think in pictures.. so like really liked that floating part! The visual was GOOD!
The left overs are the best... last year my husbands 90 year old mother who lives in another state, wanted left overs and someone forgot to send some home with her.. so we ended up buying an entire turkey cooked dinner by phone at the grocery store so she could have leftovers... she was VERY happy!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Oh, that was too funny. I'm going to print this out for everyone on Thanksgiving Day.
Rebecca!!! Did you do this all by yourself?? How creatively humorous you are! Enjoyed it greatly! Happy Thanksgiving!
Hey, Rebecca. That is a great start to the holiday weekend. Thanks, Jim
Everyone, thanks so much for stopping by and have a happy and blessed Thanksgiving.
You had me with you until you got to the cranberries.
Just wanted to stop by and say:
Russel...you don't like cranberries???
Very cute, Rebecca! I enjoyed reading this even though I missed this post prior to Thanksgiving. :)
