Thanksgiving ought ate



Beth and Simon, Zoey, Emma
where to eat is no dilemma.

They'll join Tom and Joy and Nell and Bella
and poor Tom Turkey, most unhappy fella.

Doug and Lynne, Soren and Wyatt
down to try the Sharksmouth diet.

As are Jim and Judy, fresh from Greece,
wouldn't miss it (seconds, please!)

John, Jeanette, EJ and Lias
Manchester is their clear bias.

Schatzie and Mike -- time out from tennis
come to see how tough the hen is.

While Ric and Martha, Annie, Rose
eat this and that and autrechose.

With Mark and Ella, Xave and Nya
from the Barr House -- good to see ya.

Larry and Charlotte, from the Hopkinson tree,
but so far back it's hard to see.

Arthur, Sylvia, Elizabeth and Meggy
from Somerville now (are the drumsticks leggy?)

Jim and Maggie and Charlie (cousin)
and that, dear friends, is our three dozen!

Ah! Lovely! Wish we could have been there too! Instead we were scattered from BC to the Penguin Ski Lodge at Snoqualmie to Waldron. But some of us at least were thinking of you-all at Manch.

And who is the wee one on the sofa?
