Tom Got Lucky This Year (Turkey day Challenge)
by Anne EngelenIts true what youve just heard
Tom got lucky thats the word
He got his ticket at the annual turkey fair
and won first prize, so there
For him its a feast
he wont end up as a slaughtered beast
Not as dinner, but as a guest
hes invited to Washington D.C.
The president will personally shake his wing
while the national anthem they will sing
His prize: a presidential pardon
granting Tom another year of freedom
A worthwhile Thanksgiving
for Tom another year of living!
