Hey kids!
Here's a little treat for ya!
I don't normally post on Sunday,
but took a few days for Thanksgiving.
So ...
the first part woke me up on turkey morn at about 3 am.
The second part is just The Big Man's humor shining through.
Happy Sunday.
Enjoy!
Thanksgiving 2023
by Lyn Marinello
The turkey's in the oven and so begins the dance
to a grand, abundant feast and a tryptophanic trance.
Sweet potatoes on to boil, marshmallows lie in wait.
A Heavenly aroma begins to emanate.
A casserole of green beans; mushroom soup with onions fried,
and that crisping turkey skin which, by everyone's been spied.
The stuffing has been fluffed and the cider has been chilled.
It's a mystifying miracle that nothing, as yet's been spilled.
Cranberry has been plated as the gravy thickens up.
Plates are joined by napkins as it's almost time to sup.
The seats begin to fill, a joy lays heavy in the air,
hands are joined around the table as there comes a grateful prayer.
"The bounty that's before us, a repast by hands so deft,
is made minimal in import by those to my right and to my left.
I am thankful for your presence, indebted for our ties.
Now let's destroy this big old bird, and eat up all the pies."
