Happy Thanksgiving

Call it dressing or stuffing, it tastes best when it’s cooked inside the turkey.

How much are you able to shove in

A turkey?  Can you get enough in

The bird’s cavity

For two helpings or three

So your guests make a verb out of stuffin'?

Harvest celebrations are ancient.  Thanksgiving became a national holiday by a declaration of Abraham Lincoln.  And before that?

Did the Natives sit down with the Pilgrims

To say grace, share food, and sing hymns?

It was so long ago,

That we’ll never know

But mythology grows as truth dims.
