David Crandall Poet Limerick

Happy Thanksgiving

* I'm a vegetarian, so this second limerick is not to be taken literally.

Whether or not you live in the States,
to my poet friends, wrought by the Fates,
I sure would like to convey,
a happy Thanksgiving Day,
to everyone, and my Australian mates.

Did they really land on Plymouth rock,
and when they hit it, was it a shock?
I don't know about you,
but I can't wait til two.
I want my turkey* at one o'clock.

Andrea Dietrich November 29, 2024 at 12:09 AM Hope you had a turkey day yourself, Aussie. I had myself a bowl of chili and popcorn later on David Crandall November 29, 2024 at 10:23 AM Haha, I did have a great day, though I ate too much. I'm not an Aussie though, I'm here in California, I just wished them Thanksgiving too.

Anne-Lise Andresen November 28, 2024 at 10:08 AM - Happy Thanksgiving to you (we don't have this celebration in Norway) - Eat exactly when you want :))) - hugs David Crandall November 28, 2024 at 10:44 AM In 6th grade, I did a report on Norway, but I can't remember much. If I remember correctly, you have reindeer! David Crandall November 28, 2024 at 10:42 AM Thanks Anne-Lise! Lots of beans and veggies for me! :-)
