Pigging Out

#mfffc #thanksgiving

It was quite a spread

that Grandpa and Grandma

put out for Thanksgiving dinner

but you could forget

the grand smorgasbord of vegetables

laid out on the table

our little lad only had eyes

on the golden bird plonked

squarely by the side of his plate

alas, dreams of eating it all

dashed by dear old pappa

who’s job it was to carve it
