I had to run back up and read it again; I missed the words pumpkin pie the first time.

Wonderful! Doesn’t mind the surgery, if comes out artfully!

Yes, indeed, Kim. And by October, Mr. Pumpkin has already met his deductible, so the surgery is pain-free on the wallet too! Smiles, Gershon

'Carve me artfully' - a pumpkin's plea, and your pen has done it justice :)

Thank you, Michelle. I am now going to buy a barrister's wig for my pen. Justice and Mercy, Gershon

Aww, this is so precious, Gershon! Your personification of a pumpkin’s plea, to be delicately, artfully carved, is perfectly pleasing and endearing. Your lambent personality shines, my dear friend. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

Ah, the poor pumpkin. attacked unmercifully this time of year, for weight for decoration, for food. Poor guys. We should laud them for being so versatile ;) Linda

Pumpkins really are versatile. Never thought of them that way, the darlings.... Pumpkin pie's my favorite. Here's to a pleasant October! :) gw

We should always carve a pumpkin with utmost attention and loving kindness, then warm it with the glow of a candle. That always puts a grin on them. (smile) thank you for sharing your delightful lines Gershon,
