There once was a turkey from France....
oops this is PG

Yall are doing awesome,
gonna be a difficult choice!

Happy Birthday Demosthenes!

Twas the night before Thanksgiving dinner
When Santa said, "This meals a winner!
With tofu turkey and such
It's really not much.
I think that I'm already thinner."

Happy Birthday, Dem!

"Thankshgiving is grand!" slurred the turkey
With movements erratic and jerky,
And feeling no pain
He hopped on a plane
To his time share in warm Albuquerque.

Turkey in Albuquerque

There was an old doctor named Worster
Who gave his young turkey a booster
Vitamins C, D and A
To his great dismay
His turkey turned into a rooster.

So we went on a turkey-free diet!

There once was a turkey still living,
Who complained with a little misgiving,
You take pride being Yanks,
And you give the thanks,
But we seem to do all the giving.

winding down to the curtain closing.
Get your entries in quick!

Sorry it took so long to post a winner. Forgot my computer at work over the weekend.
There's so many great entries here I think it's a shame to only highlight one, so along with the winner, I'll put up a second and third place too.

Third place: Congratulations, Hawkeye

Thanksgiving's the day one wishes
That the turkey is truly delicious
It takes a week
To eat all but his beak
In sandwiches, pies and soup dishes.

Second place: Congratulations, Shroeder

There once was a turkey still living,
Who complained with a little misgiving,
You take pride being Yanks,
And you give the thanks,
But we seem to do all the giving.

First place: Big congratulations to GBC

The turkey did not turn out fine.
So I thought I would break out the wine.
By dessert they were wasted
From the wine that they tasted
And they all thought the dinner devine.

Congrats smart trio.

Well done all three of you!
