Holiday Dinner
By Ernestine Cobern Beyer
Sing ho for the turkey of pleasant renown,
Sing ho for the stuffing, deliciously brown,
Sing ho for the gravy, potatoes, and greens,
Sing ho for the gravy, potatoes, and greens,
And ho for the cranberries, biscuits, and beans!
Sing ho for the celery, salad, and pickles,
And ho for the cider that tingles and tickles!
Sing ho for the walnuts and jellied preserves,
And ho for the pudding that grandmother serves;
Sing ho for the cookies fresh out of the range,
And ho – I mean WHOA! Don’t you feel a bit strange?
