Pumpkin Poem


 It's pumpkin time in the USA
And lots of fun both night and day.
 Jack-oh-lantern is their other name
Whatever you call them, they're the same.

Pumpkins in the fields 
And pumpkins in the pie.
Squirt a little cream
So delish, oh my.

Carve their little faces
Make a great big smile.
Put 'em on your porch
For just a little while.

Decorate with pumpkins
In the house, if you are able,
Like the little guy above
Who decorates a table.

Happy Pumpkin Month, everybody!

DO YOU DECORATE PUMPKINS IN OCTOBER?

  1. Oh I just love your poem. I love fall and poetry, so how perfect. I love to put pumpkins around the house, here and there. I use white ones in my tearoom and my blue bedroom. Jim and I usually each carve a pumpkin for Halloween night. We missed it last year. He likes to roast the seeds.
    Thanks for your faithful visits to my blog...so sweet of you. I don't know how you offer so many lovely blog posts each week! I do enjoy them.
    Love,
    Linda

  4. I don't decorate them but I do buy a few to have around for the fall season. Also have a bright yellow mum on the front porch, courtesy of my lovely daughter in law! :)

    Have a wonderful weekend,

  5. Hi Susan,
    Pumpkins are not a big thing here, at this time of year we are warming up or should be, it's a bit slow this year. Mangoes pineapples and all the tropical fruits are in the shops. I love all the varieties you have, it's pretty much butternut and standard pumpkin here and the way you use them to decorate is great. Your poem is sweet.

  7. What a nice poem, Susan! I'm much too late today checking in with your blog.

    When the girls were younger, we always had a jack-o-lantern in October. That is the only decorating of pumpkins we have ever done.

  8. HAPPY PUMPKIN MONTH to you too. Yes we do carve pumpkins every Halloween - our church sells them and then we carve.
