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,

Till all of a sudden,

I rose off the ground!!

I crashed through the ceiling,

 floated 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!!
