A Pretty Large Pumpkin
A pretty large pumpkin
Light orange red dome
A greenish hand holding the petiole
Is there a green soul
It's a little obscure
The halloween moon is
just a slim crescent
Roots and branches are a giant spiderweb
holding a spooky silhouette
On that flat stone behind
what is that, a cat?
Paper thin melted gold
laying its magic on harvested field
An illusion of elegy
The palm tree in that corner
suddenly starts swaying
Faint moonlight
makes it mysterious
when a grandfather figure says
the towering tree looks up at the
halloween moon
and is dizzy
Looking at the
half unreadable landscape
an owl seated on a cornice
Flies into the mist of
halloween moon
