How was your Thanksgiving? Did you eat unto a stupor? Or possibly unto dullness? Have you come out of your tryptophan coma yet? If so -- maybe it's just in time for leftovers (which some say are the best part of Thanksgiving).
Emmett Lee Dickinson's wrote many haikus and poems about Thanksgiving, but he also wrote one about leftovers, "Take all away" (below on the left). His poem inspired third cousin Emily to pen her poem with the same first line (below on the right).
We hope someone had sense enough to "take all away" from your Thanksgiving table to save some for today!
