Point of View

Thanksgiving dinner's sad and thankless
Christmas dinner's dark and blue
When you stop and try to see it
From the turkey's point of view

Sunday dinner isn't sunny
Easter feasts are just bad luck
When you see it from the viewpoint
Of a chicken or a duck

Oh, how I once loved tuna salad
Pork and lobsters, lamb chops too

'Til I stopped and looked at dinner
From the dinner's point of view.

I haven't blogged here in a while (you can find me most days at my style blog, Ip & Audrey), and I apologize for being so absent. Hopefully I can devote more time to this blog, as vegetarian issues are near and dear to my heart... this time of year, especially.

Here's hoping you all have a wonderful, compassionate and truly thankful holiday season.
