Betty-- or Tom? Turkey by Antoinette Kopperfield Sunday, November 23, 2003 Share Print Save Become a Fan
How did Tom get the name of our prizewinning entree'? On the day we give thanks to the Lord up above Should we call it Betty- or Lucy, or Jimmy? It seems all so silly... To give such a name... To a bird that we carve! Poor Tom gives his life at a sacrifice dinner He knows not his fate from the chefs with their knives Oh, how did it happen- He was picked as the winner! When all other names- Seem to suit the bird fine...
