Turkey on the run

another year that

Thanksgiving Day

has come.



Potatoes,

stuffing,

pickles

and pie.



Hey,

where's the turkey?

He was gone

in the blink

of an eye.



Not in the oven,

not on the counter,

where has he gone?

Hmm, I wonder.



Not in the livingroom

watcdhing tv,

I wonder,

where he could be?



Gobble gobble,

he's not anywhere

to be found,

oh look,

he's under the table.



Oh mister turkey

come here dear,

you're lucky

we are haing

chicken this year.
