Limericks for Thanksgiving



Limericks for Thanksgiving





The turkey is stuffed and is browning!

The pies with sweet cream get their crowning!

The potatoes are whipped

with parsley fresh snipped!

Not one of our faces are frowning!

~~

The cranberry sauce we did open,

this long held tradition-unbroken.

Our plates we hold ready!

The aroma is heady!

Our thanks for this meal have been spoken!

  2. Awwww, that is SO cute, Junie!!

    We're not having turkey this year (WAHHHHH), but that's okay, a few of us will be together and that's what counts. I'll miss that turkey sandwich on Thanksgiving night though. :)

  9. Now...I love that Junie. You know I'm going to love those limericks. How perfect for our holiday coming up. And what a yummy surprise when I clicked on over here to see your header and that gorgeous, yummy turkey. If that doesn't get everyone primed for the big T-Day....nothing will. I can only imagine what your house will be like on Thanksgiving....and I know you will have a wonderful one sweetie. Love, Joy

  11. Thanks for reading,

    Carletta!

    Most of the poems I post these days are not new.
    These were little quick things I did for a meme post of a blogger a couple years ago.

    Lol- as with you...blogging keeps me busy! The picture memes are time consuming, but fun,aren't they!!
