The pumpkin sat upon the steps
Triangle eyes, triangle nose,
A wide grin with a tooth or two
Bathed with light from within
With tea light’s glow to welcome all
Who would enter in
The elderly woman sat watching
Through aged eyes
Her fine creation on the steps
The rocker’s squeak a soothing sound
To the pumpkin on the steps
Welcoming visitors in the dark
All night long he sat
The candle’s light burning out
The squeak no longer sounded
His eyes wide a fright
The aged eyes no longer see
The pumpkin slumps
His empty shell no longer proud
His mistress is no more
His light burned out
To shine no more
Love and Peace~
