Gobble, Gobble

Gobble, gobble Tom Turkey said
hurry up and get out of bed
	today’s the day
	we run away
or we’ll be stuffed with hot cornbread

Very amusing and I was in need of a laugh. Well written and exceptionally welcomed. Thank you Linda. ( Is there a need for humor in a competition at the moment? If so you should enter.) This would tickle anyone's funny bone !

Thank you Wendy. There is a contest but I don't think this one quite fits Tania's criteria. :))
