Turkey of the wild
met by the roaring musket
became the first feast.

 Stacked hay and pumpkin
companions under the skies
warm the vagrant's heart.

The children from art made
pilgrim hats and wore them
over thankful eyes.

 Mom sweetens the yams,
Grandma whips the potatoes
And Gramps carves the bird.

In feasting too much
and the tummy aches, give thanks
for alka-seltzer.
