Ode of Thanks


Auntie Erica read:

"There once was a girl named Claire
With a turkey growing out of her hair
she had cranberry feet
and pie-hands so sweet
and mashed potato underwear!

This girl was a Thanksgiving feast
though all this food made her look like a beast
the town ran in fear
when young Claire drew near
but this was a fact she didn't mind in the least.

Claire lived in a cave in the woods
it smelled like cinnamon and spice- oh so good
but each and every November
NOT June or March or September
the townspeople came a-looking for food.

Then they'd strap Claire down on a plate
and she'd yell "give my love to dear Kate"
then they'd grab fork and knife
and dig in for dear life
and feast until the hour drew late."

By the great Auntie Em...of enormous intellect! :)
