~ A Feast ~

Thanksgiving is around the corner
Have your family over for a feast
The turkey will turn out golden brown
And they'll all ask for a second piece.

The yams will be cooked to perfection
And everything will look so yummy
We'll eat and eat all day long
Then sit around and rub our tummies.

The pumpkin pie always smells so good
And we'll need that whipped cream too
But we'll also have a cherry pie
I just don't know which to choose.

I get so overwhelmed by all the food
I'll need a bigger plate can't you see
I have to sample everything there
I know you're just like me.

I have to have some turkey
Mashed potatoes, yams, and dressing
Baked corn, green beans, and hot rolls
And most important the blessing.

I'm very grateful for this bounty
And happy to have family and friends
Enjoy your blessings on this day
And to you a "Happy Thanksgiving" I send.
