Something funny

'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 temptationWith all of my might.Tossing and turningWith anticipationThe thought of a snackBecame infatuation.So I raced to the kitchen,Flung open the doorAnd gazed at the fridge,Full of goodies galore!I gobbled up turkeyAnd buttered potatoes,Pickles and carrots,Beans and tomatoes.I felt myself swellingSo plump and so round,'Til all of a suddenI rose off the ground!I crashed through the ceiling,Floating into the skyWith a mouthful of puddingAnd a handful of pie.But I managed to yellAs I soared past the trees...Happy Eating to All!Pass the cranberries, please!May your stuffing be tastyMay your turkey be plump.May your potatoes 'n gravyHave nary a lump.May your yams be delicious,May your pies take the prize.May your Thanksgiving dinnerStay off of your thighs!Happy Thanksgiving to
You and yours
