Point of View

Published by

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 fests 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.

Shel Silverstein
