Oh give me a bird from the trees up above
where the squirrels and the robins do play.
Where seldom is seen a feathered beard
and the deer walk the hedges all day.

Bird, bird on the field
Where the grass is green and so real.
Where seldom is seen, that black feathered sheen
and the turkeys all stand up and say....

Gobble Gobble...

(To the tune of Home On The Range....)

Happy Thanksgiving You All.....  And Y’all,   and Youse......  (Freedom of expression is supported
here).......

Barry, I was singing in my mind while I was reading. The words went real well with the tune, too.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, too.


(BTW, I am certainly glad that "freedom of expression  IS  supported here", because those like me who are just "themselves" would certainly be left out with all this talent of you great poets here.)

(laughing) I loved this Magnus. That was so funny. I was singing it and my sister was probably thinking "What?" Keep posting

Bird....bird
On the range...
Barry, I think you are strange.

But I love every word
That you write down, old bird
So promise that you will not change.

Happy Thanksgiving, Barry...;0

Very fun! And you didn't have to tell me the tune, it was superbly evident from line one!

Happy Thanksgiving Day to you, too!!!

See my turkey humor down the board...with my wish for all, as well!

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
