One, Two
One, two Here’s some turkey for you.
Three, four Here, have some more!
Five, six I call the drum sticks!
Seven, eight Load the plate!
Nine, ten AMEN!
You'll find more traditional (adult) poems about gratitude, family, food, home, and giving thanks for the Thanksgiving holiday at https://poets.org/poems-thanksgiving, including this one from Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, "The Harvest Moon."It is the Harvest Moon! On gilded vanes And roofs of villages, on woodland crests And their aerial neighborhoods of nests Deserted, on the curtained window-panes Of rooms where children sleep, on country lanes And harvest-fields, its mystic splendor rests! Gone are the birds that were our summer guests, With the last sheaves return the laboring wains! All things are symbols: the external shows Of Nature have their image in the mind, As flowers and fruits and falling of the leaves; The song-birds leave us at the summer's close, Only the empty nests are left behind, And pipings of the quail among the sheaves.
