Forgive me, I was inspired by google searches

There once was a turkey named Markus,
He lived on a farm owned by Farkas.
Roamed he, wild and free,
Poor bird, didn't see–
His fate would soon make him a carcass.

For the dozens (more?) of people who google my blog looking for "turkey poems", do you think this is what they're after?? 🙂

Haha, my ex’s nephew was singing:
Mr. Turkey, Mr. Turkey
Run away! Run away!
If you don’t be careful,
You will be a mouthful!
Thanksgiving Day
Thanksgiving Day.

Jeni, you talkin’ ’bout me or the bird?
Sandy toes, I have a bunch more brewing in my brain, too ;).
Gattina, my thoughts exactly! ha!

LOL!!! I love limericks. Somehow they’ve always been my favorite form of poetry (shows what a deep person I am).
How very creative you are, my friend, to rhyme with carcass.

I’m glad to know I’m not the only one who took a picture of the turkey carcass. My husband scoffed at me, but I thought it worth documenting.

I really don’t think many people could make successful rhymes out of “carcass.” You rock.

People searching for poems about turkey
Are worried they might seem quite quirky
But once they land here
And find nothing to fear
Methinks they’ll decide to de-lurk-y

The google searches crack me up too.

Oh dear! Poor Turkey! Oh but this takes me back to one of the first poetic license days! I do believe I wrote a poor turkey story myself! Shame on me!
