A Praiseful Panegyric Poem Portrayed with Pumpkins and Prettily Penned
I have a fountain of praise for October
I don't have to think it over
golden leaves fall like money
cool breeze blows and the sun shines like honey
on all the spooky pumpkins in the patch
dreaming of becoming jack-o-lanterns
the prompts

ReplyDeleteHi Cie! Good to read you again! Ain't you wroting for OctPoWriMo this time?
ReplyDeleteIn praise of October! Yes, until I venture outdoors to rake up all the pine needles and leaves! Cheers.
ReplyDeleteI like the "fountain of praises" in your poem.
ReplyDeleteAh.. that search across a pumpkin patch for the perfect jack-0-lantern. Love it.
ReplyDeleteI love "the sun shines like honey": brilliant!
ReplyDeletepax,

"all the spooky pumpkins in the patch
ReplyDeletedreaming of becoming jack-o-lanterns" I like their aspirations!
This is sooo cool!!
ReplyDelete"dreaming of becoming jack-o-lanterns" would be a Happy Ending. All things on earth end, some endings are better than others. Ones not picked will rot awaunnoticed, the little ones will be cut up and boiled, then smushed and baked in a pumpkin pie. They will have no voice in which ending.
Again, this was a very nice message.
Hang Tight!!

This is gorgeously rendered! I especially admire; "cool breeze blows and the sun shines like honey," yes.. that's October for you. Thank you so much for writing to the prompt 💝💝
ReplyDeleteOctober is a favorite here, too. Often the heat of the swamps tempers just a bit, enough to let us know we will get that break soon. Enjoy your pumpkins!
ReplyDeleteDeftly done!
ReplyDeleteI love that I love your blog. October is my favorite month as well. Good job on the six
ReplyDeleteDeserving praise for October! I like how the pumpkins are dreaming of becoming Jack-o-lanterns while the sun shines down like honey.
