Thanksgiving rhymes

Thanksgiving time

When all the leaves are off the boughs,

And nuts and apples gathered in,

And cornstalks waiting for the cows,

And pumpkins safe in barn and bin,

Then Mother says, "My children dear,

The fields are brown, and autumn flies;

Thanksgiving Day is very near,

And we must make thanksgiving pies!"

Five fat turkeys

Five fat turkeys were sitting on a fence.

(One hand up)

The first one said, "I'm so immense."

(Point to thumb)

The second one said, "I can gobble at you."

(Pointer finger)

The third one said, "I can gobble, too."

(Middle finger)

The fourth one said, "I can spread my tail."

(Ring finger)

The fifth one said, "Don't catch it on a nail."

(Little finger)

A farmer came along and stopped to say

(Pointer of other hand)

"Turkeys look best on Thanksgiving Day."

Funny turkey

The turkey is a funny bird.

It’s head goes wobble, wobble.

All it knows is just one word

And that is gobble, gobble!
