Happy 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 an infatuation.

So, I raged 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!

Hope your stuffing was tasty, hope your turkey was plump.
Hope your potatoes 'n gravy had nary a lump
Hope you yams were delicious, hope your pies take the prize.
Hope your Thanksgiving dinner stays off of your thighs
Hope your Thanksgiving was blessed!

Happy Thanksgiving!
