Pumpkin Camouflage

It’s that time of year
         The turkeys are in hiding
Pumpkin camouflage 
No matter their endeavors
          I’ll be loosening my belt

What a fun write. The turkeys better be in hiding. Pumpkins are ready for pies. Oh yes, loosening our belts. Have a blessed day writing away.................

How many times do you loosen your belt, Mike? ... I loosen mine twice: One to take it off and whack the turkey 'til it's 'out-of-breath,' (to employ a euphemism. lol). Then again, before the meal: I just discreetly pull down my pants, as I'll never be able to get them on 'til the next morning, anyway. ~ He who spends T-giving night snoring away at the table....

They can run but they can't hide. Sadly we have to wait until Christmas before we get a look in. Tom
