This lavish table
is ready for a big feast;
I'm not dressed in black,
Pilgrims expressed their true faith:
I didn't travel far and long!

I gave thanks for everything on my plate,
but in my paradoxical state, 
I deeply regret
everything that I "et"
or is the pronunciation "ate"?

This antique house has old bowels
An attack could give us the scowls
The toilet must flow
And we want you to know
It’s bad if you flush paper towels!

Happy Thanksgiving to all you Canucks
I'd send you a card and maybe some bucks
but I'm broke
that's no joke
Stay close to the fire and wear your mukluks

Set out in an upper room,
passover made new;
tender slowly cooked lamb stew,

with thanksgiving said-
A hymn of

Big as a house,
Scared of a mouse,
With nose that grows
Down to its toes.
Fearlessly drives tusk into dusky musk.
Wisely buggers-off from the likes of usk.

Thanksgiving Dinner

we will eat and drink
in between we think
of all of our dreams
we've lost in the streams
our ups and downs
may bring us frowns
our hearts and souls
never pay tolls

The Family Gathered

As family détente grew eroded,
In the kitchen Mom cooked and got loaded.
Dad yelled, Mildred, the bird!
I forgot! she wine-slurred
And next moment the turkey exploded.
