No Turkey Day! by tawk at All poetry

Turkey in disguise
playing hide and seek
My owner searching
my legs becoming weak

Who made the decision
making me their main course
Never asked my opinion
I want a divorce

So lady keep on looking
you can search high and low
As soon as the front door opens
I'll spread my wings and blow

Happy non Turkey day
I hope you choke on your food
I'll be living a life of leisure
being pampered and shampooed

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Good Hoot!
When I saw the pix I thought: Hey this was my Contest! I'm the 'friend' who was running the other Thanksgiving Contest. This is really funny & I'm glad you won the Gold. It's worthy! When this happened I was mortified 'cause I didn't think ppl 'stole' other ppls ideas for Contests right out from under them! I got over it. BTW...your poem says lady but in the pix it's a man looking under the cabinet! What a weird place to look for a turkey! All in fun as they say!

cute; congrats on the gold. Have you ever seen the daffy duck cartoon where he tries to help the turkey and he ends up almost getting stuffed.
