Thanksgiving Night

Posted 11-27-2008 at 09:45 AM by GoddessofRandomThoughts
T'was the night of Thanksgiving
But I just couldn't sleep.
I tried counting backwards.

The leftovers beckoned - the dark meat and white,
But I fought the temptation with all of my might.

Tossing and turning with anticipation,
The thought of a snack became infatuation.
