Thanksgiving Wisdom

Turkey and dressing, candied yams
Potatoes, gravy, hot rolls and jam.
Apple, pumpkin and pecan pie
The food on our plates is piled high!
We stuff ourselves until we're sick.
How to stop? That's the trick!

This Thanksgiving, let us use
Wisdom, as our food we choose.
Can we stop with "just enough"?
Losing weight can be so tough!
Instead, let hearts be stuffed with love,
And thanks for blessings from above.
