Adieu Fair Pumpkin
A white pumpkin, how sublime
before the falling snow,
I'll warm the oven just in time
And in our tummies go!
So dear, so clear so virginal
This fair squash of thine
To take a sharpened knife at all
To it seems such a crime!
I turn it this way and then that
I cut its top and grin
I know just where that tin’s at
The one I’ll put it in…
Ah white pumpkin you’re bid adieu
As into your core I bore
Just as sweet and so yummy too
I’d ask for another encore!
