A Blessing on the Dressing

Grandma brought the turkey in,

Sizzly, plump, and browned;

Grandpa carved the tender bird

And passed the plates around.

When everyone was full at last,

Grandma sighed and then,

“Was everything all right?” she asked,

With a smile for little Glenn.

Glenn said, “No offense, Grandma,

The turkey wasn’t great;

But I’ll tell what was really good—

I loved the bread it ate.”
