Pumpkins Night

Empty pumpkins await patiently on front porches and farmer's fences for the light that gives them life the hand which places each tiny candle carefully inside, so they may show their toothy smiles and flicker their appreciation on their night of nights... For tomorrow they will be discarded, fallen or knocked from safe pedestals onto lawns or driveways.. tossed into trash cans, sniffed by dogs or left to fall apart in disrespect as this year's duty has been done another Halloween has passed..
