Let's make some Thanksgiving limericks. I'll start off with one then you can add your own. If you need some help with the limerick style you can see the basic structure here. Thanksgiving's a day for a feast A day to carve the roast beast Try some cranberry sauce If you don't it's your loss And some stuffing to say the least
Did you ever stop to think and then forget to start again?

When Thanksgiving is misty and murky And you're indoors all happy and perky There'll be people to greet Lots of goodies to eat But just spare a thought for the turkey...
To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self. I wonder what's on television...?

Thanksgiving comes once a year So we eat what is so dear Then you notice your weight Has gone up by eight But don't worry you hear
If you can't dance, don't blame the dance floor.

The turkey's been dropped on the floor The gravy refuses to pour The taters are lumpy And Grandpa is grumpy But Thanksgiving's a day I adore
The moon is actually more useful than the sun since the moon gives us light at night when it's dark. The sun only gives us light during the day when it's already bright out.

On Thanksgiving please invite vegetarians For this feast they will not be contrarians On steamed broccoli they'll dine A sprig of parsley is fine And they won't hoard your drumsticks like barbarians

I once cooked for both of our clans, While running around making plans. Now as a treat We go out to eat. Goodbye dirty dishes and pans!

It's time for the cooks to all shine, Everything's got to be fine. I never get stressed, As you might have guessed, I start off my day with some wine.

I looked out my window today At a Thanksgiving turkey astray He escaped from a pen He has freedom again And he's having a wonderful day.

Thanksgiving dinner was not a bore, With good food, family, friends galore. Now the cooks need their rest, They'll be put to the test Next month when they do it all once more.
Wouldn't that jar your mustard!
