 Ma and Pa Have a Merry Thanksgiving or Roaster Super Hero Has Tonsillitis T’was the night before Thanksgiving and all through the house Not a creature was stirring, ’cept the cat and a mouse. Mouse was walking the counter with a smile on his face, ‘Cause he thought he’d discovered a new nesting place. Ma had set out the turkey on the stove side ledge, Then forgot to put Tom back in the fridge. The mouse might have gnawed on it, but the cat got there first. And now it looked like poor tabby was ready to burst. It was zero seven hundred when Ma got up to dress, She saw the state of the kitchen; (It was a ‘powerful-awful’ mess.) The cat was on his back in gustatorial distress… Ma ran to wake Pa and gave him a poke, She was out of breath… Pa thought she might choke, He saw the cat and the turkey, and before he spoke… Ma exclaimed:  “I’m such a goof…” but she was interrupted by the sound of hooves on the roof. They looked at the fireplace as debris from it fell, Then, down the chimney came Santa and his sack as well !!! As Santa walked slowly into their home, Ma cried “Santa, you’re too early, you’re in the wrong poem!”  Santa sighed and chuckled and looked at his watch, The crystal was quite murky indeed. Then he looked at the turkey and laughed;   “Ho  Ho Ho… Look here, I’ve got what you need!” Ma stood there agape, not believing what she’d heard. As Santa pulled from his sack a fully dressed bird. Santa, grinning from ear to ear, Said to Ma “Have no fear, I’m standing in for Roaster Super Hero this year!” And putting his finger on the side of his nose He wiggled then wriggled and up the chimney he rose. And they heard him exclaim as he rode out of sight, “Roaster Super Hero, you sure guessed this one right!”
