Turkey Time (For Don Meikle)
White meat or dark, or in between
I don't care, just so it's lean
My personal favorite is the wings
And gravy made with those gibbly things
I also like the" parson's nose"
Not many people would serve you those
Mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie
That's mighty good eatin' my, oh, my
With family and friends gathered round
We say a prayer, then all chow down
There's so many cakes and pies and such
It' just soooooo easy to eat too much
As the last left-over is put away
I thank everyone for a wonderful day
We should honor the dead, celebrate the living
Don't you wish every day could be...
THANKSGIVING
