T’was the 1st day of Thanksgiving and all through the land,
the Pilgrims and Indians were each lending a hand.
They watched the game on T.V. and had pretzels and beer,
then later stuffed themselves for that cold winters year.
On the table was turkey, pie and bright candied yams,
and cranberry sauce in the shape of a can.
They ate until all they’re bellies felt dazed,
the Pilgrims had corn the Indians called maze.
The Pilgrims shared recipes because the Indians asked “How”,
and the only animal that didn’t get eaten was Ol’ Betsy the cow.
They partied and celebrated and partied some more,
because the Lions were up 21 to 4.
On the Florida team Christopher Columbus bet 20 bucks,
on the team from Detroit Pocahontas bet 20 more, a raccoon and 2 ducks.
The children played outside the big wigwam tent,
they played Pilgrims and Indians because there were no cowboys as of yet.
The women washed dishes and spoke of emancipation,
but all agreed that it wouldn’t happen in this new Nation.
Sitting Bull and George Washington smoked Cuban Cigars,
while John Smith and Crazy Horse sat and played cards.
The day was about sharing and thanks – giving,
but more attention was paid to the spanking that the Lions started getting.
They called the children in and had ice cream and pie,
then packed up their wagons and to say their goodbye’s.
The Pilgrims invited the Indians to the next years thanksgiving that they
“wouldn’t want to miss!”
But the Indians still had a few Reservations about this.
All bid farewell and said “thanks for stopping”,
then ran out to the malls to start their Holiday Shopping!

This is a good parity, if the Pilgrims only knew the the tables would be turned when the Indians opened their casinos.

The first Thanksgiving was a time that the pilgrims decided that a true democracy would not work. They needed to set up a system that encourage everyone to reap what they sowed. No sowing, no reaping. That helped to build the foundation for the constitutionally limited republic that this nation is supposed to have. Too bad no one is paying attention. I thank God for it every day.
