Poem Artwork


... turkeys picked clean, clear through to
bone; surprised we didn't eat the gobble.
Mashed and sweet potatoes, green bean
casserole, cranberry sauce pfft long gone.

The stuffing wolfed down as fast as it was
served; what giblet gravy?  The rolls:  who
saw them come out?  All I know, passed
me by.  Think they went the way of the

ham:  oinked.  And the desserts:  pumpkin
and pecan pie, cakes of every description:
ought to be a law:  on Thanksgiving Day or
on holidays, calories should not count at all.

The "Gobble" may have put you two over the top...lol
We had a wonderful and thankful day, frienda and family galore. Funny though, yesterday evening, driving home, turkeys were strutting around everywhere. I'm guessing they felt a little safer, but I'm sure they will go back into hiding just before Christmas.

Have to agree with you on that one but I think most of us manage to find our blind eye when it comes to holiday meals. Well done Karla now I need to go eat...you made me hungry.
