Happy Thanksgiving!
Here’s a little something fun my dad sent to me by email. From my family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving! May you find much to be grateful for today! Among all the blessings of my life, I am also thankful for you, my wonderful readers.
‘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,
The pickles and carrots, the beans and tomatoes.
I felt myself swelling so plump and so round,
When all of a sudden I rose off the ground!
I crashed through the ceiling, floating into the sky
With a mouth full 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!”
So 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,
AND MAY YOUR THANKSGIVING DINNER STAY OFF OF YOUR THIGHS!!
Take a minute to enjoy this fun e-card from me to you, then pass it on:
Enjoy your day!
