My Fat Thanksgiving Poem by Randy McClave

I will say this as a boast
But, for this Thanksgiving I'm having a roast,
I'm not having Turkey or even a ham
And I'm not having baked beans or a yam.
This year I am indeed very thankful
So, I'm also having tatties and a broccoli casserole,
Who knows of the other fixins
As my son and his fiancée will be cooking in the kitchen.
Of course there will be only pumpkin pie
Not pecan or apple or cherry need not apply,
And of course it will be all homemade
Prepared at the highest tasting grade.
So, while my family is stirring and roasting and preparing
I'll be salivating as I'm wanting and staring,
Then when my nose and senses receive the delicious aroma
Please feed me, before I go into a coma.
Then soon the delicious food will be on my plate
Then later on the couch I will realize to much I have ate.
So, as I celebrate this holiday and a happy living
I will indeed get fatter, on this Thanksgiving.
