My Thanksgiving Diet
 
A tiny piece of turkey,
a touch of mashed potatoes,
one tablespoon of gravy,
two cherry red tomatoes.
Thirteen little peas,
a quarter cup of yams,
no butter for my roll.
I’m glad there was no ham.
 
Impressed you are, you say?
I cannot tell a lie.
The last thing that I ate
was the entire pumpkin pie!
