The Pumpkins | Angel Edwards

The pumpkins are a family
just as it sounds
a fun family of pumpkins
a four piece family
Mom Pumpkin
Dad Pumpkin
and their children
Jolly Pumpkin
Grinn Pumpkin
identical twins

They all liked
to wear a fancy hat
but their heads
were too round
to keep a hat on

Green stems and roots
served as shoes and boots
steadily on the ground
the pumpkins got around

There was a lot to be seen
in Pumpkin Town
circus of flowers
a merry go round

They took turns
carving each other’s faces

Mrs.Pumpkin carved
Mr. Pumpkins face
into a worried frown
Mr. Pumpkin didn’t like this
He screamed the place down

Jolly came to the rescue
made it into a smile
Mr Pumpkin’s mouth
stretching for a mile
