Gary Wayne Hill Poet Rhyme

A Very Different Jack O Lantern

There was once a little Jack ‘o’ lantern
Who despite trying his best
Was always getting picked on
Because he was different from the rest
He was a different color you see
And he stood out in a crowd
But it was the fact that he was different
That made him so very proud
So he rose above the taunts and bullying
Ignored the pumpkin's lip
And at Halloween was crowned
The pumpkin king
Despite him being a turnip

For the contest 'Everything Halloween'
