Gobble Gobble 2009

On this Thanksgiving, 2009,

Down to the Outerbanks where the views are fine.

Food was abundant and the wine was flowing,

I drank so much my cheeks were glowing.

The children were put to work stuffing the bird,

It seemed right to put them in labor while I watched and observed.

I did make one contribution to this fine feast,

a turkey wine bottle which was no mean feat.

In no time at all we sat down to our dinner,

I definitely walked away from the table no thinner.

And to round it all out, I will not tell a lie,

I had at least two pieces of the most divine pecan pie.
