A Gorgeous Ghostly Sight
Unmasked, that gorgeous ghostly sight.
White pumpkins on verdant vines.
Reflections glowing in sunlight.
Awaits awesome designs.
Either happy face or spook,
Imagination free.
The archduke passes by fluke.
What a sight he did see!
Orphans in the pumpkin patch,
Paint brushes in each hand.
Squiggly hair and lips to match.
The artistry was grand.
A sign beside the pumpkins –
Come get one; it is free!
Artist and receiver wins.
The day is filled with glee.
