Ode to Pumpkins

Sunny stroll through the pumpkin patch

I’m seeking to find my perfect match

Orange and round, I pluck you from the vine

Oh, how I love this pumpkin of mine

Home with me, my pumpkin will go

To take a seat next to my scarecrow

After you are carved and made hollow

A Jack-o'-Lantern for treaters to follow

Rows of teeth carved to give all a fright

Prepared to glow Halloween night

Eyes carved out to see the tricks and treats

Pink princesses and ghosts in sheets

Autumn is the best time of the year

Halloween is a holiday that I hold dear

Place a candle inside so you will shine

Oh, how I love this pumpkin of mine

Writer's Note: I love pumpkin everything and I hope you enjoyed this silly little poem I whipped up. I have so many fond memories of walking through the pumpkin patch with my children. The way their eyes seem to shine as they pluck a pumpkin to take home. Something about pumpkins stirs something in my soul. It brings a sense of serenity to me. Pumpkins are my favorite.....FAVORITE!

Thank you for reading! Love the support I've been getting <3
