 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 TEMPTATION WITH ALL OF MY MIGHT. TOSSING AND
 TURNING WITH ANTICIPATION, THE THOUGHT OF A SNACK
 BECAME INFATUATION.

 SO, I RACED TO THE KITCHEN, FLUNG OPEN THE DOOR AND
 GAZED AT THE FRIDGE, FULL OF GOODIES GALORE.

 I GOBBLED UP TURKEY AND BUTTERED POTATOES, PICKLES AND
 CARROTS, BEANS AND TOMATOES.

 I FELT MYSELF SWELLING SO PLUMP AND SO ROUND, 'TIL ALL
 OF A SUDDEN, I ROSE OFF THE GROUND.

 I CRASHED THROUGH THE CEILING, FLOATING INTO THE SKY
 WITH A MOUTHFUL OF PUDDING AND A HANDFUL OF PIE.

 BUT, I MANAGED TO YELL AS I SOARED PAST THE TREES....
 HAPPY EATING TO ALL - PASS THE CRANBERRIES, PLEASE.

 MAY YOUR STUFFING BE TASTY, MAY YOUR TURKEY BE PLUMP.
 MAY YOUR POTATOES 'N GRAVY HAVE NARY A LUMP, MAY YOUR
 YAMS BE DELICIOUS, MAY YOUR PIES TAKE THE PRIZE, MAY
 YOUR THANKSGIVING DINNER STAY OFF OF YOUR THIGHS.

 Happy Thanksgiving from all the Shirley clan
