'Twas the night after Thanksgiving and down for a sleep
Strange dreams into my mind did creep.

Leftovers beckoned --- The dark meat and white,
But I fought the temptation with all of my might.

Tossing and turning with anticipation......
The thought of a snack became infatuation.....

So into the kitchen I did race,
To see how much food I could stuff in my face.

I gobbled up turkey and buttered potatoes,
Pickles and carrots, beans and tomatoes.

I felt myself swelling so plump and so round,
Till all of a sudden, I rose off the ground !!

I crashed through the ceiling. Floating into the sky....
With a mouthfull of pudding and a handful of pie,

But I managed to yell as I soared past the trees.
HAPPY EATING TO ALL !!
PASS THE CRANBERRIES PLEASE !!
