Seasonal Surrounds

Up and down the stairs they go The pumpkins are part of the show Some are lit others are not They are the best that I got The colors that surrounds these gourds Are oranges and reds, greens and golds There are flowers and leaves all about They are seasonal, this I should shout The Jack-O-Lanterns shine so bright During the deep hours of the night Each step has a glowing pumpkin on it A delightful sight to see when I sit I can’t imagine a greater scene than this An Autumn and Halloween décor bliss

Sensing the excitement of the season thru this colorful upbeat rhyme...I always wanted to have one of those cool decorated houses on Halloween..Never decorated as well as this poem describes though...gwendolen

Ahhh!..Reads like Halloween and fall are your favorite season...My husband wanted some gourd seeds this year..I ordered him some that were mixed sees..You should see some of them they are grotesque looking fruit of the vine...Thanks for stopping by..Sara

I love decorating for the holidays and seasons. I have a similar scene in my home I usually set up mid-September. In Florida, the change of seasons occur more inside my home than outside... I enjoyed your wonderful autumn scene this morning, Russell! A lovely write...have a blessed weekend. Hugs, Rhonda
