"Turkey! Turkey! Turkey!" cried the gobbler. "Soon it will be Thanksgiving Day!" |
"Hush. Hush. Hush," cried his siblings. "Don't let them know you're here." |
"Who? Who? Who?" replied the gobbler |
"The people, who will eat you on Thanksgiving Day," answered his brothers and sisters. |
"Gulp," went the little gobbler. "Why would they want to eat me on a day of Thanksgiving?" |
"Because it is tradition to give thanks for a belly full of turkey on Thanksgiving Day. Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm, they say. That sure was good." |
They needn't say more, the siblings to the gobbler; he learned his lesson well, and fast. As he then stretched out his tail feathers and pressed berries to their tips. |
His brothers and sisters watched in wonder and awe. Then their beaks hit the ground as the gobbler danced away singing, "I'm a peacock. I'm a peacock." |
