Thanksgiving Poems for Kids

Five Little Turkeys

Five little turkeys standing by door, One waddled off, and then there were four. Four little turkeys under a tree, One waddled off, and then there were three. Three little turkeys with nothing to do, One waddled off, and then there were two. Two little turkeys in the noonday sun, One waddled off, and then there was one. One little turkey better run away, For soon will come Thanksgiving Day.

Mr. Turkey

I heard Mr. Turkey say, Gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, Soon t'will be Thanksgiving day, Gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, People say that it's much fun, But I think I'll run and run And hide until the day is done, Gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble, gobble.

Five Fat Turkeys

Five fat turkeys are we. We spent all night in a tree. When the cook came around, We were nowhere to be found And that's why we're here you see!

Turkey Trouble

(To the tune of "Mary Had a Little Lamb") We cooked turkey, nice and hot, Nice and hot, nice and hot. We cooked turkey nice and hot On Thanksgiving Day. We eat turkey a whole lot, A whole lot, a whole lot. We eat turkey a whole lot. It will not go away! Sandwiches and soup are fine. By the way, would you like mine? Potpie lasts a long, long time, It's turkey every day!

Thanksgiving Poems for Adults

He who thanks but with the lips Thanks but in part; The full, the true Thanksgiving Comes from the heart. --J. A. Shedd

Ah! on Thanksgiving day ... When the care-wearied man seeks his mother once more, And the worn matron smiles where the girl smiled before. What moistens the lips and what brightens the eye? What calls back the past, like the rich pumpkin pie? --John Greenleaf Whittier

Lord, 'tis Thy plenty-dropping hand That soils my land, And giv'st me for my bushel sown Twice ten for one. All this, and better, Thou dost send Me, to this end, That I should render, for my part, A thankful heart. --Robert Herrick

Thou hast given so much to me, Give one thing more, a grateful heart; Not thankful when it pleaseth me, As if Thy blessings had spare days, But such a heart whose pulse may be Thy praise. --George Herbert
