Scowl From a Fowl

Scowl from a Fowl Everybody had been saying their blessing Started to eat turkey filled with dressing Along with some salad and cutup tomatoes And my favorite which is sweet potatoes. Ate crisp piece of bread without crumpling Discovered how much I liked apple dumpling Which is what we had towards the end And turkey wishbone we tried to bend. Longer the length always better the luck And a turkey I never have tried to pluck When it stopped running all over the place He was left with terrible look on his face. Teeth loosened as days of life did increase And we ended up eating macaroni and cheese Never again to see a face with a big scowl Worn by tough turkey who once was a fowl.
