Tom turkey dreaded this day but hoping all would go his way
You see, this time of year was Tom’s greatest fear
Yes, Thanksgiving Day would seal Toms fate
His gobbling days were over as he adorned a plate
Yes, he was one handsome fowl until things went afoul
-Eugenia

Poor Tom, things certainly did go afoul for him as we gobbled up the gobbler. Thanks for sharing with In Other Words.
