Pumpkins

Pretty fall colors carved and decorated
Understandably the best in a cream covered pie
My favorite flavor is the cheesecake
Plump and lumpy or perfectly orange
Kill it with a shotgun after halloween
I love to watch the scrambled pieces fly in the air
Never let the Jack o lantern go to waste!!
Seeds left on the ground, grow next year!

I like your acrostic. My favorite line is the 5th line. I visualize the pumpkin blowing up.

Good acrostic about those ever popular holiday gourdes. We did not have much rain this summer, so the crop is a little better than normal around here.

Hi Doris, I love this pumpkin acrostic. Every year we go to the pumpkin patch for the perfect fall pumpkin. It's one of my favorite activities of the season. Nice to see you posting. I do hope you're feeling better. Love and Blessings, Rhonda
