Thanksgiving Day:

Thanksgiving day is oh so fun

Especially when the guests start to come

Food scents and chatter fills the air

And the thought of that much food, I can’t bare

 

My mother talks to the guests about food

All of the waiting for the feast is just so crude

David and Katie plan out their dishes

When I break the wishbone, I’ll make my wishes

 

Burning food scent stuck in my nose

The cranberries and turkey don’t smell like a rose

Seasoning and breakfast sausage is the only talk

When I tasted the turnout, it was just like chalk

 

Peeling apples and slicing them up

David does it into a measuring cup

Chopping up broccoli into a pan

Putting it into the oven is soon Katie’s plan

 

My mother walks around opening champagne

I hope that the turkey she cooks isn’t plain

Pots and pans clank around

Later I hear a beeping sound

 

The turkey is done, and the guests dishes go in

My father chats with Katie about football, like who’s gonna win

Katie then saw a shock on her cellphone

She saw the Steelers re-posted her photo on twitter even though to them she was unknown

 

The cold air blew through the broken window

I was beginning to freeze from the continuous airflow

Tension and calmness was the feeling I felt

Over the mashed potatoes, butter would melt

 

Loud steps around made by my mom and dad

Dinner was close to ready, that makes me glad

Champagne full glasses clinking softly

If Katie or David dropped theirs, it would sure be costly

 

Water runs for the freshly bought flowers

Their wonderful smells do their powers

My dad’s jokes just won’t stop

He cracks them while my mother chops

 

The timer beeps and the candles are lit

Everyone finds their place card, and there they sit

Finally we can stuff ourselves with all the food

Thanks are said, and happy is the mood

 

I’m so full, I have nothing to say

That is why I love Thanksgiving Day
